The time frame can be whatever is agreeable to both you and your seller.When you have an investor, or other end-buyer, lined up, you sign an Assignment of Contract contract with the investor, which will disclose your assignment fee, and the total purchase price, it also says that they will be obligated to fulfill all the terms of the original contract.Take both forms to the Title company, do 1 closing, where your seller closes directly with your end-buyer, you step out of the deal, and the Title company disburses all the funds, including your assignment fee, directly.This is what I generally prefer to do, though I have to do my closings with a title company that isnt local, since my local ones don't know how to do an assinment of contract.

Something more fulfilling.

My parents have one at their house -- now I have one; a dream fulfilled

They have been good at fulfilling the work order requests as well.  

You have a contract to fulfill and so does he.

I am determined to do this, I have no other options and since getting into real estate has been my dream, its time to fulfill that dream.

@Raul Ruvalcaba I would think that a good business plan and financial information on both of you that your loan officer could give you an answer to what and how the best strategy to fulfill your desire at 4 more rentals this year.

At this point all you really know is you asked them to fulfill your application requirements and they are choosing not to.

Many I know who have been successful either have a business partner and/or employees who fulfills the other requirements or just focus on the investment side of things.
