It depends on what you mean.If you expect to flip before you actually take title you will likely find the seller will not cooperate.

The HOA's cooperation to your request could tell you a lot about the personality of their organization.

I have even offered to do a cooperative assignment with them and its still a no-go.

At the same time I am not sure you will get cooperation if you mail a letter to someone you do not know and then proceed to insult them.

From that amount, the listing agent offers a certain amount to cooperating brokers to show and possibly sell the property.If that offered amount is entered into a membership driven MLS, it becomes a contract with all participants of that MLS.

- The Cooperative Assignment is a technique where the REI leases with option from seller, then sells - assigns the contract.

If so all you need to start is the cooperation of the home owner that they are willing to whole sale the property!

So, yes, they are probably paying less than neighboring rentors, but they have been good tenants, and cooperative.

I don't understand why the seller would cooperate with you the investor to get the short sale (provide the hardship letter etc.) and not get anything out of it?

Under this agreement, the broker may also cooperate with other agents and if the seller accepts an offer from a buyer represented by another agent then the seller is still obligated to pay both sides commissions.
