@Linda Carretero Resourcefulness is so important, especially in this field.

This all helps, I hope you have a great day.k im not the most experienced on BP by any means but here is what i think based on what you told me here Joey. this is real deal holy-field. . .   

OMG.. in such a very feasible scenario, would seller not reveal he is both the buyer's agent and the seller/owner himself.. until offers are written up and it shows for itself as the same name in both fields?!

Keep getting that ball down the field and don't get distracted. 

This does not cost you anything but misplaced pride you will come to realize you will do better without in this field of endeavor.

This makes answering your question difficult.Listening to your friends is great if they talk about their personal problems or if they are professionals in a field they are talking about.

When meeting with the seller after the purchase price has been met, do you read and go over the purchase and sale agreement with them, or let them go over the contract themselves and sign the appropriate fields?

Seems like everyone here also like real estate, so I figured I'd ask for some tips.A little background - I work full time in tech field, but I ALWAYS had a passion for investments.

I think this is super simple as a licensed agent.. your not a wholesaler.. your an agent working in distressed asset field. 

I would love to hear others advice on this situation just coming from someone with more expertise and experience in this field.
