What to do when seller won't hand over rent rolls?

[Jonathan Hernandez]

I'm looking at buying a shopping complex, however the current owner won't allow access to the rent rolls for the units on the property. I'm looking at it for a buy and hold. Any ideas on how I could entice the owner to allow me access to those rent rolls?

@Jonathan Hernandez  Write your offer with a contingency that says something like "This offer is contingent on a satisfactory buyer's review of tenant leases and payment history."  

Don't forget to get estoppel certificates before closing.
