You could also use "Doug's LLC and/or assigns" where Doug's LLC is your hypothetical company.As for the assignment contract, you can get one from an attorney for probably less than $1,000, you can also make a friend at a title company, they probably have a template they could give you.  

All client deposits when to title company let them account for it all :) I have a trust account, only because some states require one, such as Pennsylvania.

A title company?

Or the listing agent.If you have a provision on assigning leases to the buyer and transferring security deposits in the Offer To Purchase (in Wisconsin that's part of the standard form) the title company will put the SD as a line item on the closing statement.

By contrast, we just teach “stick to good underwriting, using title reports and escrow and having sufficient capital to make sure the seller is cared for”.

Your response really helped me understand the key aspects of short sales, especially regarding title issues, lender valuation, and inspections.I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your expertise!

Unfortunately as I’m not an agent I didn’t read these books and can’t remember their titles.

I wouldn't imaging the state where the entity is registered makes a big difference for most buying and selling purposes as long as you can provide all of the required documents for title purposes.
