If you were instrumental in facilitating that deal you could be liable on many fronts.The learning curve for these deals has gotten a lot longer, it's not as easy as any program or strategy claims on the surface.

Facilitating financing, origination of a loan, processing it, closing it and arranging payments or servicing are all areas that are restricted.Actually, in your deal, if it's a flip, you could do a sale contract and a construction agreement for repairs and then sell it never having to take title and get paid at closing, you may not need to get into financing at all. :)

Being a straw man facilitating a commercial loan could have issues.If you're flipping a contract, attempting to have financing terms agreed to and then have someone assume that financing without specific consent by the seller will be another big issue.It's best that you stay out of the financing side and allow the seller and end buyer to devise the deal. :)

Yes, while RE is not a security, options can be, giving financial advice is covered or facilitating financial advice for the purchase or sale of assets is a covered aspect in financial regulation.Different degrees of activities may apply to commercial transactions.

Other than that find the deal, open up escrow and let a professional facilitate the neccessary paper work.

I'll have cash flow and build equity.On the other hand, I can go for the chunks of change that rehabbing can facilitate.

HSBC's short sale facilitators are aware and knowledgable about discounted payoffs vs. short sales and were willing to present my offers.Thanks for the offer, but it's hard to get excited about a BOA loan file that probably has big red flags on it now.

But not for deals she doesn't originate/facilitate.

In such a case, my lockbox would facilitate showings, and I guess in the end I would save 1.5% or even much more if I happen to get the buyer as well.
