Letter worked but the offer fell through..

One of the projects I've been doing involves a bit of real estate. I've sent a few letters
on behalf of my ("client" unnamed here) in an effort to help them sell some property.

The very first letter got a response, and a decent offer. The only problem was, the potential
buyers couldn't get around the fact that there's only a 30-foot easement into the property from the highway. Their deal fell through.

In the meantime, another contact I'd made expressed interest, and made an offer in the $1M
neighborhood. A contract was signed, an escrow payment was made, and this buyer had 90
days to get the permits and paperwork together..but, they ran into Leon County, I guess.
They couldn't get their permits through the system and ultimately, this deal fell through as well.

What'cha gonna do to sell property with a 30 foot easement when everyone needs 60 feet, and the owners in the front won't budge? THAT is the million dollar question!
