Fees

[Cedric Johnson]

Hello BP, I have a question about the various fees involved to complete a wholesale deal. How many different fees are there, and how would I be able to estimate the total amount needed to close a deal?

I try to avoid a double close at all costs (no pun intended).  I have found a couple investor friendly title companies where they hold the funds from one transaction to pay for the other.  They will do this as long as the close happens the same day. 

Ex: buy close happens at 10am and those funds are put in an escrow, then the sell close happens at 2pm, and the funds come out of escrow to complete the close.  This way there are no double close fees but not all title companies will do this.
