Hello Nick, thank you for the quick reply. I suppose I should add a bit more detail. I did not introduce the two parties--- the seller lived in his home as a primary residence and was there to open the door so the investor and I could come in and view the property. He walked with us during this tour, and they exchanged pleasantries while we looked around. They did not exchange contact information or anything more than first names in my presence, and were never left alone to speak while I was there. My best guess is at some point the investor went back to the property and knocked on the door. Ideally, I am looking for ways to keep the homeowner and investor apart entirely, but asking someone to "go away while we look around" in their own home is obviously rude.

Hello all,

I am wondering how, upon signing a contract with the homeowner and then attempting to assign it to an investor, one can prevent the homeowner and investor from making a deal behind my back? I am new to wholesaling and the second time I took an investor to look at a property I had secured a contract on, he and the homeowner started speaking to each other during the inspection. I suspect at some point the homeowner and investor revealed to each other the price of their respective contracts. Both the investor and homeowner dropped off of the radar afterward, and I later found out the homeowner sold to that very same investor. I am aware I have legal rights since I had a contract with the seller, however (since waging a lawsuit is prohibitively expensive for me) I am asking for advice on how to prevent this situation from happening in the first place. I have accepted that this deal is water under the bridge, but I am looking to learn as much as I can from it. Thank you all in advance for your responses.
