"Purchase Money financing is a challenge for several reasons. One is that in this climate of rising prices, sellers are reluctant to budge on any issues that arise in the closing process. The second is that Buyers are often faced with deadlines from fixed rate lending programs that can change on a daily basis. The tension that results from this balancing act will often kill a transaction.--"
