Hi Eriko,I'm in the Fairfax County and can empathize with how expensive our RE market is.

I can empathize.

I empathize your situation.  

I would just empathize with the daughters for their loss and offer help with the sale if they need it.  

Gah, you're definitely right about putting your foot down, but you can empathize with me about putting a foot down with a sweet old lady...

Telling your prospective seller over and over again that you are ready and willing to buy is better than telling them you empathize with their situation in one well researched letter.I often tell my team it's better to send 10 people the same letter 10 times than to send 100 people one letter one time.

I totally empathize with your situation and am sorry you’re going through this.

However, the Landlord has a duty to mitigate the Landlord's damages by re-letting the property in a reasonable period of time.This is the procedure I follow for early Tenant termination of Lease:First, I maintain a professional, friendly, and empathic relationship with the Tenant throughout the process.

Really trying to empathize with him.

I'm originally from southcoast MA and can empathize with higher prices out there.
