Have you ever seen this? Is it shady?
Florida question…we are investors, this would be our fifth short term rental purchase, and I have never seen this. Wondering if anybody knows the legality involved with both of these being checked.
we don’t have 100% trust in this real estate agent as we have only worked with them a couple of times.
We like to have the ability to walk away from a deal if something goes south and typically will use the finance contingency. I haven’t gotten a straight answer from the agent as to why both boxes are checked.
Let me know your thoughts!

Hi @Kim Durst I am a realtor and investor in Fort Lauderdale. You absolutely need to have a financing contingency in there. In fact, I STRONGLY recommend you also have an appraisal and homeowners'/flood insurance contingency in there as well. An honest realtor will give you many avenues out of a bad deal!
