And say I do get to the point of a contract, do I tell the sellers (in simplified terms), "You are agreeing to put your property under contract for X amount of dollars. You will recieve X after this contract has been passed off to an investor who will pay you X amount. But I do get paid the amount of Y (The amount the investor is wanting to purchase the property)minus the X". Thats such a bad example lol but I tried to make it simple as I am new and learning.

Thanks a lot! Wouldn't a seller want what the house is potentially worth rather than a negotiated number? I'd expect they'd want their mortgage loan or some type of debt to be paid off so that wouldn't that be the number they'd ask for?? I haven't stepped foot into the field yet.

Alright, so i've done my research, spoke to a few investors (still have a lunch meeting with a mentor coming up), and read through a few forums. But here's my question...

When looking for a deal and potentially signing a contract, what would homes that are upside down in mortgage, owner still owes a nice chunk on the mortgage, any kind of taxes that has not been paid or a lien take place into place? Most forums or "wholesale examples" I read are as simple as finding a property that the owner is willing to sign i.e. $50,000 and sell contract to investor at $60,000. Does that seller own the title to the home? Do they still have a big loan on their back? Taxes? Etc?

One more thing to add a little off the subject is how to get the seller to agree that you will be making a profit on this transaction of the contract to a motivated buyer, and getting the buyer to agree that you're getting a profit as well. Thanks in advance BP world!
