A typical "good deal" that I just witnessed an investor make is purchasing a property for $163,000 putting $7,000 in repairs and renting for $1300/mo.

I witnessed some dealings that lead to my immediate resignation.

Just you, the tenant and your witness.

Is it possible to sign PA with my end buyer (which I know personally) have them give me/title company (I have to witness close at a in town closing agency)  the funds, which I then in return wire funds to my first closing, and give my end buyer a quit claim deed to the property and not have to formally do a second closing, they know they already have to wait a few weeks before the other title is filed.
