Out of state landlord needs to sell

Out of state landlord has owned the house for less than a year and wants out, but tells me he can't get in touch with his tenants for us to see the inside. He has no pics available.

Stephanie, I apologize for being presumptive, but you did not state how you came upon the property/whether there is a seller’s agent, and all else seems legit. And I am allergic to even hearing about potential fraud - my fists begin to clench uncontrollably, etc...

With no pics and no (legal) way for you to get inside (“tenants have rights”) (btw, this also applies to an inspector,) has the seller asked for a deposit or much of your personal info?

I hope I am on the wrong track, but would hate for anyone to be taken advantage of for not speaking up.
