Turns out they have attempted these double closings with local investors but have managed to blow them all apart at closing.

Of course this would be used only when attempting to secure properties that fit the cash buyers requirements.

Bill, you actually knew who attempted to snitch on you?

I'm just starting out and recently posted a thread in regards to a licensee investor marketing another investor's (wholesaler) properties to your own buyer's list in attempt to collect an assignment fee/advertising/referral fee (however you see fit) from original wholesaler.

Have you attempted to resolve the issue with them?

I suggest before you do any birddoging or attempting to facilitate a real estate transaction between a buyer and a seller that you check state law very carefully as to who is required to have a real estate license!

She told my agent that there were no other offers on the home, and that she had no idea who was at the house attempting to keep us out (and start rehabbing it before closing).

They will attempt to squeeze as much $ as possible.As for the "mod", they will attempt to place the property owner in the HAFA program.

Again, any suggestions would be appreciated.Lastly, attend the local REI club, find out what the major players are looking for, find it for them, and attempt to wholesale a few.

i believe that at this point he needs to be notified in writing that he is in violation of his lease and list the things he has done, make sure to include attempted assault on property manager and let him know that you will be terminating his lease or if you think he will pay his rent, then let him stay and make sure the letter says that the next violation he will be evicted. but you must notify him in writing that he is in violation and send it certified in case you have to go to court; from my experience, irate tenants have always seemed to calm down when i send the violation of lease notices; if he passed your checks to become a resident, maybe he was having a bad day, wither way if you feel you will get your rent, i say give him a warning, but if he did cause someone to really move because of him, i would terminate that lease and kick him out
