You make them an offer they can't refuse

It isn't on the market. I approached them about buying it and offered a fair price.
They have other houses and aren't always there so thought they would sell it. But they weren't open to it so how do I make them

>i went and offered them a fair market price
>why wont they sell2me /diy/?
a 'fair price' for property thats not on the market and the owners have no interest in selling, probably STARTS at fair market value +25% - and even then, they will probably still tell you to fuck of, as is their right. And that 10 times, you start bleating about how 'its a fair market price, and you never use it..' - none of which is, in anyway, the remotest of your fucking business, pal. You have literally no leverage for negotiation here, none at all - surprised they even listened to you, desu.

Then onto the solution of how to get then out?

Now that, as they say, is a different matter entirely. I know peeps that would target entire rows, nice houses, buy one (any one..) cheap as possible as foot in the door, fill it with trash, house/garden everything, start working the neighbors to sell up Thats a long game tho. You need to study youtr target, find potential areas of leverage - why you obsessed with the damn place anyway, personal, or money? People who want/need to sell, be a whole lot easier, esp. the latter. My advice, fuggedit meantime, go buy / flip something else, maybe revsit the issue later.

Offer more money.

>>1171719
Yeah.

It's by itself so harder to drag value down around it.

I just want it..long story

>>1171719
if you really want it, threats come next

That shit will get you arrested though needs to be more clever

If it's actually in SF, you'll have to marry into one of the elite families who run shit before you can own property.
Otherwise, just bus in homeless people until the property value begins to drop.

If you happen to be the US Govt or one of it's corrupt cronies, you apply eminent domain and kick them out with a bulldozer and the sheriff. Otherwise, get fucked or offer them more money you degenerate.

find a way to convince them it is haunted and they will die horribly unless they sell it quickly

This never worked in Scooby-Doo.

Protip: avoid meddling kids

If you can't drag down land value, that suggests it's secure from most forms of legal/economic manipulation.

Your only option is to pony up an ludicrous offer: There are no other routes that give you even a decent chance of getting the property.

If the concern is sentimental (Family/Childhood home), take a photo and learn to move on: See if you can replicate some of the traits you enjoyed the most.

If the concern is amenities; Welcome to /diy/, what do you want in your home today?

How did you know there's Nazi gold under that house?

Offer to sell them fire insurance.

Fucking this. I bought the house my brother (died last year) rented a few years ago, we used to have crazy parties there and its condition reflected it. I then had the psychological battle of wanting to preserve it, but knowing it needed to be renovated to be usable. I ended up flipping it back off to a sympathetic buyer.

Avoid at all costs if it is a sentiment driven purchase.
