Hi @Guy Francois,My advice is to speak with an attorney to see what your legal options are at this point. 

We are not married... is there any way to do this legally?

My favorite source for a beginner is Every Landlord's Legal Guide by NOLO.

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

Do not rely on it for legal advice.

Also, YOU need to be the person who makes the monthly mortgage payment, or the seller needs to provide you with online portal access to the mortgage lender's website or have statements sent to your address / email - so that you can make sure that it is being paid.

Hi  everyone, I am a new wholesale investor in the Cedar Rapids area in which I have my first deal in progress and I am wondering if you know of any real estate attorneys with knowledge of wholesaling to create a legal wholesale assignment contract to get my first property under contract?

Supplement it with some business / legal classes, Spanish (if you plan on being around construction), take some real estate classes if offered as electives and you should be all set.
