i spoke to an older lady. her husband passed away and she moved but kept the house.

the house got broken in to. copper pipes stolen and two feet of water in the basement. not sure what else is wrong.

first time i spoke to her, i thought it was a deal. she seemed relieved to be talking to me. she said that her insurance company does not want anyone entering the home until they check it out.

i followed up with her the next week. she said that now the insurance company wants her to take pictures and she hasnt had time. so i still cant check out the home to buy it. (is there any way i can get her to speed up the process?)

  on top of that, she said that her old neighor has been wanting to buy it so he gets the first offer but he needs to see if he can get financing from the bank.  (what are the chances of him getting financing from a bank?)

What about volunteering to go over and take the pictures for her?  Two birds, one stone?
