How much should you push the owner to buy a property?
My wife and I are currently renting one side of a duplex in a great neighborhood and my landlord is retired, and recently sold all of his other properties and now just owns mine. I have approached him about selling, and he is interested but doesn’t need to sell and said to maybe follow up with him in a year or two...I talked to him about owner financing opportunity so that he can still get a check every month and he seemed interested. Haven’t spoken with him about this in about 2 months now...just curious if any of you have insight on a good strategy about keeping it in front of him and keeping the door open for me to buy this without being an annoying mosquito pestering him with it. Any thoughts?
