Showing for a first time investment property

[Michael Steinbergen]

Please help.  I am trying to schedule a showing through my realtor and the listing agent to see a property I would like to house hack.  However, one of the tenants is being really difficult about confirming the showing time so I can't get it scheduled.  They are holding everything up.  As the potential buyer what are my options?

Your best move is to have your agent push the listing agent to get the seller involved. They may be able to enforce access with proper notice depending on local laws. If that doesn’t work, you can still make an offer contingent on seeing the unit during the inspection period. In the worst case, use the access issue as leverage during negotiations.
