how to get a realitor to sell a sub 2 house
I have a house that I did a subject 2 on and I have a deed but I have not filed it and she will not list the house until I file the deed, why is this? One thing I have learned in RE investing is sometimes it is better to control the property than to actually own it. How do I explain it to her bc I want to use her on other deals that I want to wholetail and some of my subject 2 deals.

Usually, if you don't Own it as per public records, an agent can't list it, as per MLS and individual Broker rules. Why would you Not record the deed. Trying to avoid transfer fees, limit liability if something blows up? The title co. nor the lender for the new buyer aren't going to close the transaction from you, unless and until you've recorded legal ownership anyway. The "chain" of title in the public records needs to be unbroken.
