Many lenders are not okay with this, as they want to know that the last sale on the property was at least 90 or 180 days ago (not two hours ago). Some lenders will be okay with it, but you need to verify that before you sign the contracts.
This is why cash buyers (whether they are investors or OO) make double-closing easier...they don't have to make their lender's happy...
Does that make sense?
Ok. I got it. I was it would be complicated with JUST wholesale if there was lender financing involved but either wholesale or double closing with a lender would be complicated; therefore, cash buyers, investor or owner occupant, are the ideal wholesaling or double closing.
I've heard the best strategy is to wholesale to investors and double close with owner occupants, because wholesaling is less possible trouble with an investor than OOs. For the sake of argument, it's just a cash buy.
If a wholesale or double close deal goes through with a lender, how long does it take to get my money? And, this is when I just get my money in cash, right?
