a simple answer (which there really never is in this industry, and rightly so..) would be that depending on your involvement in the deal -- as a wholesaler, you could operate* by using purchase option agreements in which you either terminate for a fee to the end buyer or reassign to the end buyer, in which you could capture a fee for doing so, while collecting your "just deserts" from the end buyer at closing. either way I would recommend talking with people in your area that are familiar with local and state laws regarding this process as your mileage may vary. good luck!

I'm not an advocate of lying to tenants but the email/letter to the tenants almost needs to sound like you have sold the property or have moved away to a desert island so tenants get the message that you are 100% out of the picture.
