Short sale negotiations

[Jairo Freyre]

Hello,

I have been studying up on negotiating short sales and already have a client that will allow me to negotiate the structure on the property. My question is, is there a conflict of interest with me negotiating the short sale and also purchasing the property? If so, would it be better to set up a different company that handles the purchase and consequent sale of the property or, should I just have a realtor list it while I collect a negotiation fee? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

FYI this deal is in Texas if that makes a difference.
