Rob:
It sounds like this seller is NOT really that motivated or flexible?
Why not explain to him some of the benefits of structuring your purhase with HIM financing the sale to you. (favorable tax treatment, etc.) and see what his read is on this. It may be possible to structure some owner financing with this seller where if he still wants a signficant amount of cash ALL or PART of the note(s) created can be sold to generate this cash to the seller.
Probe, and see if there is some flexibility or motivation here, if not then Move on…
