Depends alot on your ability to qualify the guy on the end who can actually perform and the representations you make.In some areas it is seen as acting as a leasing/sale broker to facilitate a sale, mainly if you are in the business of doing these over and over, that is not a sub-letting issue of a lease you may have entered into but a business operation with a strategy to circumvent RE licens laws.The are tons of issues, especially for new investors, beware of the gurus and mentors, to date I've never seen them address all the issues that may apply.

Investors/Operators can use an Option to buy a property at a later date or to simply control circumstances to keep a property from being sold and to facilitate further transactions.

Traditional investment banks have not yet registered for crowdfunding, leading to speculation that crowdfunding will be facilitated by lesser-known financial institutions with little or no retail investment track record.Or by entrepreneurs like us!

The estoppel letter facilitates this process.

And @Dion DePaoli any lease arrangement that facilitates any sale, conveying an equitable interest and having any payments structured toward a purchase price is a financing arrangement and the use of any quit claim deed will have the same issues as other installment sales or note and deed of trust.I'd say the CFD would be something for history buffs, but no attorney should be doing these any more, regardless if they have the authority to or not, they need to move on to a note and deed of trust or same under a Sub-2.I've had more than one attorney tell me that, after pointing out financing and contract issues with CFDs, they would simply stop doing them.

Unless you have an agreement (contract) with the Vendor that s/he will facilitate these activities.Another possible option might be to partner with the Vendor if s/he has the money necessary to get started.

Will be happy to get a PM message why is Henry Rappa recommended and if there are others that would be recommended in Boston and very good that their customer service is great and very thorough in their checking / problem solver / deal facilitator 

I find being a part time agent facilitates investing.

With a local shop, my main concern would be if they are up with current technology to facilitate doing it online or if they need a lot of paperwork signed in person, etc.

If you have any questions or concerns, be sure to ask for clarification.Use a third party: If you are uncomfortable dealing directly with the lender or buyer, consider using a third party, such as a lawyer or real estate agent, to help facilitate the transaction.It's always a good idea to be cautious when dealing with unfamiliar parties, especially online and out of state.
