If your offer is accepted make sure you get a escrow company, closing agent or lawyer or whatever is used in Illinois, that is familiar with probate.If your PR has limited authority and needs court approval to sell assets make sure you understand the court confirmation process and auction if there is one.

When I buy a home Should I accept the 3% buyer agent side of commission and split it with my broker or take no commission and ask seller for 3% reduction in purchase price?

@Jeremery Jett, you mean, you put in an Offer which was not accepted?

Isn't the bank just as likely to accept a short sale vs going through a FC regardless of the equity?

I know that many asset managers will do a quick property check on buyers before accepting an offer to see if they own anything else and confirm that the buyer is not an investor.

Call the Atlanta Housing Authority... and also the Department of Social Services.Social Services can point you at State programs.

So far, our buyers are accepting this offering, but time will tell.

From what I understand, the procedure is to give a notice to pay rent or quit, give the tenant 7 days to pay in full, and not accept any partial payments.
