@Gautam Venkatesan I'm sure Brent didn't mean for his thread to get caught up with us discussing TX LO's, but if you have specific questions about the law you don't understand you can e-mail me.

Realty implies brokerage to me, too.The name of the LLC doesn't mean much, though, especially in L/O's.

If you go down Hudson Blvd and pass the McDonalds, the Bi-Lo, and then get to the light and turn right...there's a brick walled neighborhood full of mansion looking brick homes.

I have a potential seller interested in selling via L/O where I will be assigning my interest to a Tenant-Buyer.

I dont really have an issue with who the borrower is, although verbally the LO told me it would be to me because i wanted a mortgage on my credit report.

Again, I suggest you look at the Sub-2 arrangements, pass title and wrap the note or take a sepearte note, it's cleaner than a CFD.A L/O can work too, use seperate agreements and have an option price, you still need to underwrite the buyer, see when the can finance out and make it work.

Tagging my favorite LO @Wyatt Wolff

Not certain an LO has the juice to make that decision...

The underwriter has commented to the LO that since my cousin does not have a common Anglo-Saxon name like "John Smith", the underwriter is unwilling to accept the explanation of two people bearing the same name in the same county.

I went back and looked at the data, and lo and behold, this year is actually slightly better than last year.
