I would check with the county and find out the legal name property is currently under.

I use an assignable contract to purchase the property (2 pages) and an assignment contract to wholesale it to my end buyer (1 page). 

Again, obviously I will conduct all of my due diligence once under contract. 

It makes perfect sense to me but I mean from a legal, etc perspective.  

I have experience with contracts and will be writing a legal agreement between us (Overkill maybe but I want to get in the habit of doing things right early on) so any tips on what needs to be included?

I informed her that despite her knowledge it is actually indeed legal.

Is the property under contract?

Just a list will be worth less than something you add value to.Check to make sure you have the legal rights to distribute the data in the product you bought. 

My friend is not licensed, nor insured - but he knows construction and is sub-contracting out the work to reputable laborers from his personal network, some also uninsured.  

Do you have something under contract??
