I'm meeting with a accountant next week for rental issues regarding taxes, but a lot of the lending is out of his scope.

But if she is unwilling to stand up for her rights as a property owner, it may be time for someone with the fortitude to deal with "the issue," to step in and take the problem off the landlord's hands.

If it's clear you are not blowing smoke, are pre-approved and have the ability to buy then there should be no issue with showing properties.

If they are having an internal squabble that is their issue; the rent is still due in-full, on-time, no exceptions.  

Thanks @Stephanie Potter my main issue was having to go through 2x refinances due to seasoning requirements and the LTV @ 70% means I have to keep more capital tied up than I would like in the property.

They will happily throw you under the bus to make them look good, by turning you down.I have a client right now and Newport Beach, California, with $45,000,000 cash liquid in Wells Fargo bank and can't qualify for a $200 secured card with capital one because a series of incorrectly reported mortgage issues (that I will get deleted).

Hard money lenders also don't really like to lend to owner-occupants due to compliance issues, so I guess it depends on exactly how you set up the process.

It may be frowned on but those that do not place their business interests first usually end up on here asking how to deal with tenant issues.

@Roger Poulin I'm creating a real estate company currently and after I get all my infrastructer completed I'll be using some capital to reach out to delinquent owners in the hopes to get them out of their foreclosure issues, and hopefully also collect a portfolio of land to resell.  

There are 2 different issues here:-Deductions from the security deposit need to be made within the timeline outlined by your state.
