Flipping REO's via Land Trust
I just flipped 3 properties today to a all cash investor using a land trust. I had never done it before and I was skeptical but I closed all three deals same buyer within 3 hours.
Here are the steps if you want to use a Land Trust to flip:
1. Put in your offer as xyz title vesting tba in escrow.
2. Get offer accepted.
3. "Street Name" Land Trust Trustee xyz (whatever buyer that is in Step One)
4. Find a cash buyer
5. Sell your land trust to Cash investor ( Wholesale Fee)
6. Cash Investor is the 100% beneficary
7. He wires money to escrow.
8. Property sold
9. Beneficiary (Cash Investor) fires xyz as trustee and assigns his own trustee for property.
NO EXTRA COST FOR A DOUBLE CLOSE USING TWO ESCROWS
NO EXTRA COST FOR TRANSACTIONAL FUNDING
NO COMPLICATIONS WITH ESCROW AND TITLE
