Wholesale through Attorney w/ out of state owners

Member since 2021 · 4 posts · 0 votes

How do you go about wholesaling a home with an attorney involved if the homeowners live out of state?? I'm in Texas and they live in Louisiana. The home is in Texas too. I called homeowner for info and he gave me the number to his attorney that's handling the home. Would it be same as normal but everything goes through the attorney??

    Depends on the state. But usually goes through title company

    The steps to wholesaling the home are the same. But if the lawyer is any good you likely won't be able to buy the property cheap enough to make a wholesale deal out of it. Also if the lawyer looks at the settlement statement he will most likely raise a red flag to the sellers about your assignment fee.

    If the owner says deal with the attorney, deal with the attorney.
