Right before Christmas week, I was given news that we finally had the engineer report and that the permit would finally be applied for, but something or other error or complication - I'm not even really sure - prevented us from using the report and that we would have to find another way, and of course I wasn't going to get any updates through Christmas and New Year.

I'm ready to start getting out of the research phase and move into an action phase!

You may have a difficult time finding some options.The good news is the available options are not much more than if you were renting out to lower risk retail tenants.

I know it's not entirely necessary to involve them in wholesale deals but I've been told that they handle all the different legal actions and aspects of the transactions for me.Anyways, my question is what exactly should I do and say when presenting my purchase agreement and contract assignment to a Title Company or Closing Lawyer?

I don't see any other issues and highly recommend actioning your idea.

Gain knowledge, ask questions, then take SMART action.

Am I terrified of taking action?
