		Broker is suggesting 21 days for due diligence 
- $200k down payment is required for the deal with a financing contingency.
- Non-exclusive deal in the due diligence period so other buyers can also put in offers. 

Has this been something others have dealt with when searching? Please let me know if you have any advice for negotiating this deal.

I suggest countering with exclusivity, no down payment, and 60 days of due diligence. If not accepted, I suggest moving on.
