wholesaling in ny

[Obed Lorisson]

I'm a newbie ,just starting out , I'm considering the wholesale strategy just to get my feet wet , i understand the concept very well ,but i have some questions regarding NY.
1)i would like to know if you can assign contract in NY (Not for REO)?and if so can you do a back to back closing or a double closing?
2)Can somebody refer me or know a title company investor friendly and a real estate attorney that used to deal with investor , PM me if you have one.
Thanks everybody for the help
