They don't like to see seconds when you first purchase the property and you cannot use seller financing as your down payment for the first.

Since real estate is going so quickly, lots of sellers are getting their listing prices or close to it even though lots of properties are over priced.

Hi All,My offer was accepted but the seller has a C of O (done 18 months ago) that is not transferable and will not give credit for a new one and is not negotiating. 

Real Estate investors can take advantage of the low end of the scale to find people who could be motivated to sell their homes. 

@Tyler Weinrich Depends on his motivation for selling.

Lastly, if I want to become "B" in the scenario as an investor, what are some of the techniques used to find "A" seller and "C" buyers quickly and promptly, in order to arrange the transaction?

As they move up the net worth ladder investors tend to want less headaches and move into higher quality assets where ongoing cash flow is a little less but long term equity growth prospects are high.There is generally not demand for low income areas except for investor buyers searching for yield to deal with a headache versus ultra high quality areas where investors will usually pay  a premium to a seller to own in an area.

The seller of the property pushed to take this amendment out of the contract which i did not agree to.

And my experience has shown me that the easier the sale for the seller the more likely they are to have problems post sale.

If there is a mortgage on the property you are required to use an escrow service this protects both buyer and seller to ensure the mortgage is being paid and the property is not sold again.
