Pick his brains as to why he accepted/passed on deals and on tenants.

I was just shy of that in liquid investment assets at the time so I offered $35k and they accepted.

So now literally talking about 1 month to close it and lenders many not accepting closing by years end as pushing newer applications and loans early in process to close next year.Maybe you could try short term owner finance to close the sale out this year if it is for tax purposes and then simultaneously run the loan process and take out the seller finance note once the lender loan comes into place.No legal or tax advice given.  

It makes me wonder how he can have an exclusive listing agreement and not have a price in that agreement.

I do understand that the gift implies no re-payment what so ever and will be sure to make that crystal clear before I were to accept any type of gift.I consider myself extremely fortunate to have a family member who would be so generous to even consider gifting any money at all.

If so, does anyone have an acceptable form? 

Hello everyone,I found a 4plex I am interested in and a lender that would accept a 5% down payment, however the seller wants to carry a note on the property for 6 months and she wants me to put down 25%, this is a large amount  that I do not want to tie down right now.

With a voucher tenant, once a rental package is accepted, everything stops until that package is submitted and vetted, and an offer of rent is presented.

And problems are going to happen no matter how much you prepare and you have accept it.
