Thanks. BTW, I had this issue come up last month but I represented the
buyers so I didn't dig into it. My only concern was getting the parents
to sign the FIRPTA because the kids had thought they already had done a
QCD beforehand and the parents were not listed as sellers (and the
listing agent apparently didn't check before listing).
I really with the NWMLS would make an preliminary commitment attached to
the listing mandatory.
