Hi Adrienne Bryson. Thanks so much for your explanation. Is very very clear and helpfully. Now my doubts disappear. I'm a brand new, I learned and hear many times about the assignment and double closing methods, and now that I'm almost close to make my first deal I get confuse, Lol. Thanks again for your information. Have a great day.

Hi Stephen Anderson thanks for your comment. Yes That is exactly what I have I mind, but I get a little confuse when these attorneys told me that. What about if the seller check in the pickup records and see that their property was sold in a higher amount ? That's something that this attorneys call like a fraud and not legal. I'm very close to make my first deals and I don't want to be out of the law.

Hi Benjamin Pekarek thanks for your comment. The name of my company is something that I can't change now but also I'm not pretending to be a broker. I'm very clear and honest about what I'm doing now, which is wholesale and fix and flip, so rather than the name I think that is not going to be a problem for me.

Hi, I'm William Laurent, a wholesaler in Miami, Florida. I need you help with something please, I was trying to review my contracts with an attorney here in Florida, and most of them told me that the process of sign and purchase and sells agreement with a seller in xxx$ amount and then assign the contract to another third party (investor) for a different xxx $$ amount is illegal and consider like a fraud. I was studying and preparing myself and have clear the wholesaling process and now different attorneys here told me that. I know that Wholesaling is a old and very common strategy in this business but why there is attorneys who said that is illegal? How can Explain to this attorneys that this strategy is complete legal when they are attorney and know the law? Thanks, I really appreciate all your comments attention and help with this issue. Have a great day. Regards.
