@Anthony Nguyen That is awesome man! My ultimate goal is to do more fix and flips. I'm an advertising project manager by trade; and I believe my experience managing timelines, budgets and expectations could prove to be extremely beneficial managing fix and flips. Of course with a GC; as I have no construction management experience whatsoever.

Awesome flip!!

Question for you, as a Project Manager, do you have an extensive background in construction? Or are you just a rockstar PM that has the knack for managing timelines, budgets, and expectations?

 Hey Jesse...I'm considering Union Bank. What are they picky about?

@Earl Binion

Hey welcome to bigger pockets. As a newbie investor, and trying to close my first deal, BP has been an awesome place for answers to the most weirdest and strangest investing issues.

Glad to have you here!

@Jeffrey H. @Andrew K. @John Thedford

Thanks so much for responding guys. The reason she balked at the clause is that she had a financial commitment already set two days after my proposed close date. She never mentioned this before I made the offer; otherwise I would have accommodated her date with a little more wiggle room. Then she got to the part about 30-day extension (I even offered her $300 for an extension).

Here's the deal...this is a 4br/3ba house in Southern CA...and she wants to sell it to me for $120K; when comps in this particular area are upwards of $280K. That is UNHEARD OF! I'm almost 99.9% confident I can close this deal either with hard money, private money or wholesaling it. I really just need the contract signed.

Hey gang...quick question.

I've got a contract out with a seller, and she is kind of "balking" at the notion of a 30 day extension if we cannot close on the date stated on the contract. She wants me to take it out all together.

The way this deal is set up...I'm absolutely sure I can close this deal in the 15 days stated in my offer letter (and in the contract). 

How would you feel if a seller asks you to remove the "closing extension" clause in your contract? 

 Hi Shannon! I absolutely will! I'm assuming your area code is 951, correct? (it says 9951)

Hey @Carlos Caloca!

I'm a newbie investor in the AV. I don't live out there anymore, but I'm hopefully about to close my first deal in East Palmdale. 

Let's connect. And let me know if you have any questions. 

BTW...there are a lot of AV folks here on BP.

Hey BP,

I've got a contract out with a seller, and I'm waiting on a final signature.

I tried searching BP for answers to this question, but I feel like the answers may be specific to the cities those members were from. In Southern CA (or CA for that matter), what is the process to open an escrow account, and filing the contract assignment? And if I plan to wholesale, should I put the EMD down (out of my own pocket) and collect that deposit from the end-buyer?

I'm a step-by-step kind of person...so numbered bullet points would make it crystal clear for me.

Thanks gang!
