We found this property on Facebook, talked to the owner in May. They have had tough times due to Covid, including the death of loved ones. After looking at pictures I told them that they should list the property & would get top dollar. Gave them my good friend & agent's contact info so they could list. I got a call back from the owner in late August stating they just wanted to sell & wanted to know if I was still interested. I gave them my offer of $133,000, prior to our inspection. Our inspection found a leaking water pipe under the home that would cost about $15K to repair along with other items, the roof needs attention, a couple of broken windows, etc. This brought our purchase price to $100K, I knew this price wouldn't work for the homeowner because they owed $89K on the mortgage. So I offered to wholesale this home in hopes to find a buyer to take our place. Found a buyer to purchase at $150k plus closing costs.
