Am I shooting myself in the foot?!?!

[Michael DuVentre]

hey everyone I'm Mike! I'm a newbie to wholesaling!

Anyway I have yet to do a deal but I am optimistic! I have ran across a plethra of abandoned eye sore properties in my city. I looked the properties up on the tax assessors website and found that majority of the properties have  property taxes owed on them.   If  I were to get intouch with the property owner and do a deal on them, how would I actually go about it?!??   

Would it be:

1. Option to purchase agreement ( that states  buyer will pay property taxes)

2. Assignment of contract

3. I guess next I would have a memo recorded at the register of deeds office.

Am I missing something or did I totally screw that all up?!?!

Can someone show me a option to purchase agreement that states buyer will pay property taxes.
