@Denise CarringerMy preference is to go local - some community banks offer this type of service or local escrow companies, which is what I found, because they offer a higher level of service than most national.

Finally found this one and took advantage of the low interest rates by winning the bidding war with an offer slightly above asking price.

Some custodians may offer access to platforms with investment opportunities, as well.

Look for your states offer to purchase contract online or contact a realtor to get a blank copy. review the agreement to be sure assignment is not expressly excluded. if there is nothing excluding assignment from the contract then writing the words "/And or Assigns" after the name or company's name on the buyer's line should be sufficient.Good luck!

Multiple offers situations are the rare exception, not the norm.

It's hard to say offer amount without knowing the rehab part since that could blow this out the water.  

Find a quality agent in Texas, then ask them if they offer a referral fee.

@Tom OchiengI would reach out to a real estate attorney for specific advice on this situation since you already have one tenant who is being difficult.On a side note, when I have inherited tenants, I have been most successful when I have provided longer non-renewal notices, like 60-90 days, and offered to assist with moving costs.

Compare offers from the lenders, paying attention to interest rates, closing costs, and any penalties.
