I asked the state of Oregon this question and this was the answer pretty much every state has the same laws on the books.. its just up to each state how or if they will enforce them.. the equitable interest theory is just that.. does not hold up if your taken to the matt.what does work is the sub too come into title and resell that works..this regulator went on to tell me on the phone that double closings they see as prima facia evidence of selling real estate without a license IE they see one party come into title and flip same day they then make the assumption that they had to market the property they did not own to some buyer in some manner IE e mail blast craigs list etc.. and she went on to say that they see it as some sort of fraud now I did not get that.. but I asked her specifically because I have been a party to these transactional and will no longer do them.
