These have worked for me to win in multiple offers. 

The seller wants a larger EM, and I’ll bet it will non refundable, because you’ve had multiple extensions and the seller is tired of dealing with it...if I were their agent I would ask for the same thing, or simply put the property back on the market.

The current owner is old and reportedly wants to retire.My friend is very smart (was a big name at google, amazon, etc) and is experienced with multiple larger units.

Also the fact that your property is vacant currently and for renovation is another hurdle for some banks and insurances.But continue to search and you’ll find some.That is one of the reason that my companies have multiple bank accounts with many local credit union to build a relationship with them as they are more encline to help me with these exotic loans.

I would certainly make sure one of them is an independent agent who can shop multiple markets and many different options on your behalf.

Do you run multiple people's credit checks at the same time and then choose the one with the best credit score?

I have read multiple real estate related books, and I am an avid listener to the Bigger Pockets podcast.

We decided it would be best to sell and move to something more affordable that we could grow into.We listed the house and multiple offers over asking price later, we took our profit and moved on.Lessons learned?

I didn't think or know I was one until multiple individuals acknowledged me as exactly that.
