My profound thanks to everyone that participated in the forum!

You need to make sure that they are an active participant in your program.As examples:if you say you are looking to find off market properties, that would mean that the agent would need to call around neighborhoods looking for potential sellers and follow up vacant home leads. 

There are usually a lot of attorneys and title companies involved in wholesaling....I don't think all those professionals would risk their credentials if what they were participating in was illegal.Like everyone said, look up your local laws as they are different in all 50 states but as long as you are following the language in the contract the seller has signed you should be fine.If it says don't market, don't market, if it says no assignment, don't assign...if that's the case, get a new contract.

Im participating/investing in a multi family syndication for the first time.

I suggest you read this BP article on how to find a Mentor as many people attempt solely asking on this forum for participants but do not get the best results.

Not only did Josh and Brandon team up to write this ultimate guide, but they’re teaming up to participate in a live author Q & A session—exclusively for people who buy this book from biggerpockets.com/store!
