Your one safety net is a double close.

I am specifically looking for title companies who will allow me to double close as well as assign contracts for a fee.

The land has doubled in value since I originally purchased it.  

Given the work, time and risk involved you want to be well into the double digits.

House across mine is going up for sale for almost DOUBLE mine.

From 2500 to 7500 on a 650k purchase  (2 family 5 years ago)Appreciation on 1 and 2  doubled and on 3 has tripled.The area has climbed so much so fast but is now a standard 5 cap which is why I am reluctant to buy more.

Typically, in a wholesale deal, the wholesaler uses the end buyers funds to purchase from the seller in a double closing.Wholesaler uses end buyer funds to close with seller.Once closed, wholesaler sells property to end buyer and profits on what they agreed to.It is MUCH more complicated than I simply described it but that is a quick picture.2.

@Thomas Gagnon - Double holy crap!

I have a SSN when I was in the USA, now I am an Expat and pay my taxes in the UK (double taxation agreement).

I'm ok with this as the property should be an easy rehab, and I have double my estimate of repairs and still stand to make $15k on the house.The rub is, I'm in the Seattle area and the property is in Rural VA.
