I have an …
I have an assignment clause built into my contract so by them signing the agreement, they are agreeing that it can be assigned. I use the same clause whether I keep it, or assign it.

So if you’re doing …
So if you’re doing a cash deal, then you can always assign it without any problems right? (assuming the seller agrees to the assignment/exit clauses)

I live in Texas and …
I live in Texas and I want to try this. I understand you can file for the LLC online but how much time will it take for me to actually go out and start making offers, like once you file with the SOS online its an official LLC so I can go out right then and there and start making offers with the LLC? And would I include a sell provision in the operating agreement so I can sell the LLC to the other buyer? And would he have to dissolve the LLC after the he were to buy the actual house on contract?

the only exit you …
the only exit you need is an inspection contingency that’s built into every state contract I’ve seen. If you can’t get a buyer within that time frame – at least get feedback from the buyers that have seen it and counter offer on your inspection to lower the price to where your buyers will take it (and you get a spread).

LLC=$50, …
LLC=$50, Transactional funding=2pts or typically 1k-2k or more in expenses. You do the math.
Many guru’s would have you use transactional funding because they refer you to the transactional funding source and make a profit on all the transactions you do there.

it’s a personal property transaction, the title co.has nothing to do with it, so you can use any title co. – usually with REO’s you can’t pick the title co anyway.

do you have to have …
do you have to have a special title company you deal with or will any title company let you sell the llc to the 3rd party

so what your saying …
so what your saying is create an llc and put the llc in the contract…but not the assigment of cantract with it right ….then sell the llc sepeate to the buyer then he takes over the contract

watch my video on …
watch my video on wholesaling REO’s. NO you don’t use an assignment. You create the LLC first, use that on the contract – then sell the LLC. Not sure what you mean by court house – we’re talking about REO’s – which means it’s past court house – it’s lender owned – if you buy at the court house, you need cash then and there – not a wholesaling strategy.
July 4th, 2010 at 7:16 am
so you put the REO …
so you put the REO property under an assignment contract 1st and then go and put it under LLC? couldn’t you put it under LLC at the court house?
July 4th, 2010 at 7:16 am
There are some high …
There are some high volume wholesalers that can get assignment deals done with lenders because of their reputation and ability to get it “done”. Follow the rules till you can play that angle.

it might work or it …
it might work or it might cost you the deal. I DEFINITELY See lenders having a problem with that. Just do it the right way. You need a business process that works EVERY time. What you might save in time/$ on one deal is going to COST you thousands in deals you WON’T do because the lenders will kill the deal.
July 4th, 2010 at 7:16 am
I read somewhere …
I read somewhere that another way to assign a reo after its under contract is to simply tell the lender that you can no longer perform in the transaction BUT you found someone else who will take your place in the transaction. When lender agrees, then you assign. Do you think that would work? Do you see lenders having problems with that?

typically you’re …
typically you’re going to make more double closing a short sale to an end-user who’ll get a mortgage – that is getting harder and harder to do with seasoning requirements. not as likely to short sale one and assign to an investor as you can get them cheap, but often not cheap enough for a rehabber.
July 4th, 2010 at 7:16 am
What are your …
What are your experiences with short sales? Have you ever been able to assign those? Any problems? How long did it take? (since I hear short sales take forever to close and esp. now since lenders are waiting for a bailout)
July 4th, 2010 at 7:16 am
yes. keep in mind …
yes. keep in mind though, some agents will not “get” it. I even had a former student of mine who’s an agent tell another current student of mine “you can’t do that” – right up to the point where my student made 6,000 and the agent made 1800 commission.

Do you tell your realtor up front that you plan to assign the contract he/she helps you get on a bank owned home? Any suggestions?

you will need a …
you will need a proof of funds letter to submit with your offer. Don’t make a big deal out of getting one either, just google hard money lender in your area or google proof of funds letter. EASY to get one. you need to make sure your buyer actually has verifyable funds to close the deal.

Does the bank want you to show that you have the funds BEFORE they will accept your offer? If so, that is a problem.
