How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Interesting detail: The property was previously under contract at over $2,600,000. The seller was in a 1031 exchange with another property in which he was already non-refundable on his earnest money. He had fallen out of contract with a previous buyer, so he had to close on or before May 31. We were able to accommodate his closing date request and negotiate a price for the property that made sense for our business plan.
