Hi @Christopher Gadison,You already did the tag in your last post just by using the @ sign hahaI am currently looking for a multi family property using FHA in the Union City, West Bergen and Jersey City areas.

This last point is very similar to when LLC's first came out.

@Nick Rice I think all chris was saying is that the market as a whole right now is pretty hot, and there are bidding wars going on, "almost" everywhere, and when a buyer comes in with a FHA loan nowadays, usually there is a couple other bidders already bidding on the same property with 20%, 25% down, maybe even full cash, so the 3.5% down offer to a seller is a bit of a last option.  

and yes if the buyer wanted this property.. the second they got the counter and if it was acceptable they should have signed it.. then get it acknowledged and then they are in escrow... if they wanted out I am sure there was a due diligence period.. this is the type of mistake folks only make once its a learning curve however the buyers agent should have told the buyer they risk losing it by sitting on the contract to the very last second. this is why in hot markets you see sellers and buyers make offers with ONLY hours to repond.. offer comes in at 1pm and they require a response by 5pm.. giving days to respond is nice but it does set you up for what exactly happened

(Call and interview them to find a good match)How many books on real estate have you read in the last 6 months?
