you report "Man, I gotta go check out this neighborhood for a possible house sale, but I'd love to have some company - come with me!". 

Won't the bank simply sell these listings as REO sales in their time?

That doesn't count (and I had to sign something that I would never reveal how much money I walked away with).2) I use to be the king of the short sales in 2009 until they passed some laws that basically made going after pre-foreclosures very risky.

I want to list my multi family property for sale but I don't really want my tenants to know I'm selling it.

Be happy with the niche you select and know the market well too, especially the best locations.Always remember to do a math analysis and try to look at all prospective properties before you make an offer or at least have a clause in the sales contract that gives you some time (about 10 days) to make a detailed inspection and possibly back out of the deal without much of a penalty that will hurt you too much.  

It will not increase the sales price by 15k.

I am needing to know that if I get a seller to agree to terms (owner financing) using a purchase and sale agreement, then assign that contract to a tenant buyer with my assignment fee, do I need to be licensed as an agent/broker?

Is it even for sale?

As of right now my only option seems to be pursuing a short sale.
