The tenant just signed a new 1 year lease but has also complained that the driveway needs relaying and that the deck is falling to pieces so guess this is a ploy to start negotiations on selling price.I understand that they pay the rent for a given time, plus extra that we hold as a deposit/down payment so assume I can get that contract drawn up by a real estate attorney who can also work on closing once the agreed upon timeframe ends (is this better than a realtor or should I just go with one and pay the 5%?

When you get the contract, you have to deposit at minimum $1 to have a valid contract.

Get documents from the contractor - a contract with the scope of work, an invoice and a payment receipt2. 

I have put my first wholesale deal together, so my question is do I take the signed contract to the title company to put the house under contract, or do I wait to get a end buyer to take the contracts to the title company?

So I'm wondering has anyone put 1 of these properties under contract for $100 to wholesale it.
