If you think your unit stands out with the competition and there is not a lot of available units in your market , you can give it a try. 

Personally I cant stand apartments with animals. 

When considering a boom town or fastest growing cities in the US, which ones stand out as having the least available tradesmen or contractors available?

I don't usually respond (can't stand pushy salespeople, ha!)

If something is not clear in your IC agreement then ASK the principal broker for clarification before going to try something you THINK is okay.If you are licensed as an agent you need to be active and in good standing and typically all real estate related activities have to go through your brokerage you hang your license with.No legal advice given.

If you want him to accept the deal as it stands - resubmit the deal but "up" your earnest money by 50%.

When you deal with an agent, they are gonna be confused about your deal too, so unless you are standing to make a ton of coin, I would move on to an easier more profitable deal.

Well, in case you can't find an investor and can't fund the deal yourself, the most you stand to lose is your earnest money.

As it stands, the actual principle buyer is not (obviously) willing to pay such a high price tag and as such, this greedy (I want to hit a homerun everytime) wholesaler will end up getting nothing from my deal because I wont do business with her or any buyer she brings to the table.

You need to put them in the frame of mind that they need you and not the other way around.And important not sure what you write in your contracts for assignability but down here its one box checked on the contract so it doesent stand out too much.
