Positioning oneself to assist owner/seller for profit

[Brian Parks]

Current events: I have the opportunity to work with the owner/seller of 160+ acres.

Deal Characteristics:

• Oil producing

• 70 Acres currently rented by farmer

• Mature timber (veneer stock)

• Sits at along river

• Bumps up against park system

Questions:

1. Although I am not a realtor/agent , how must I position myself (Documents, etc.)?
2. Could I put the land under contract (Is this the same as obtaining interest in the land via an option)?

Any and all advise is appreciated.
