Quote from @Majdi Chowdhury: seller is not on title. purchased dec 2023.  

Hi everyone, As the title says, I'm under contract on my first deal.

They will also be able to handle any closings/title work.

I would NEVER pay for a title report on a property because 98% chance it wont go ..

I depleted my savings when I stupidly renovated a house on which I'm not the sole owner on title.

I have title and appraisal experience, so comps, etc don’t worry me  The one thing that is giving me heartburn is estimating rehab costs… good deals move quickly.

Does anyone have a title companies that they use for Sub2 (and Wrap) deals here in Central Florida? 

I use the title company that I work with for everything. 

This seems like a lot of work to save 15% of $35k in taxes (Less than $5k.) especially if you have transfer taxes or title insurance, or you convert your long term 15% rate in to your son’s regular income tax bracket.I hate paying taxes as much as the next guy but this lemon isn’t worth squeezing.
