As the years have gone by and I've changed jobs and learned more and more about real estate, my goal has transitioned from slowly fixing my house to setting the goal to have it listed by Fall of this year.

With that said I am getting ready to transition from just flipping as I am about to add some rental properties to my portfolio.

Having the assignment / double close, preformed smoothly and as professionally possible is very important to me.

I wouldn't care as much about the co-signor as having the extra cold hard cash if they default.Seasoned tenants have a VERY SMOOTH sales pitch for moving into a property and convincing you to take a chance on them.

I once bought a property at a foreclosure auction, and subsequently contacted the occupant to discuss her "transition from occupancy".

It is a relief though that it all went as smoothly as it did.

Since it is my first one I want easy access to make sure things run smoothly.

It may cost the ability to provide a smooth transaction.

Therefore, transitively, most of the money is earned at the purchase.That said, you have to agree with 1 and 2 for 3 to be mathematically correct and not everyone will agree with 1 and 2...nothing wrong with that...again, just my opinion.

file, EIN(tax id), open bank account, transfer funds into the a/c.only unknown is the mailing of docs and transfer of the money transit times.oh i did my first one through a lawyer, it took longer b/c he had to meet and talk about our needs and go back and forth.
