What recommendations does the community have for finding a good lease and what sort of information do you make sure you include? 

I would like to give her some sort of extension agreement for her records but I cannot find anything like this in my assortment of docs I've collected over the years.

Everything you just mentioned implies distress of some sort or another; in addition, absentee owners (rental properties, etc) are probably more likely to work with you on the numbers you need as a wholesaler.

I was sort of taken off guard by that to be honest.

I know that there is some sort of governement assistance out there, just not sure where to look.I live in Michigan, am married and have a combined income of less than 50k.

Owner carry on a second, cash back after closing, all sorts of things that wouldn't be legit on residential loans.

Aren't there some places where this sort of thing is in a grey area, and you need to have certain wording in a contract to make it legal?

I don't do this sort of deal, but know folks who do, and have never heard of a loan being called.Now, I do think there's a risk here.

But there are times when you just cannot flip the property to an end investor, and you will need some sort of protection and risk minimizer to get your earnest money back.REMEMBER ALWAYS send any earnest money you do put down, to the title company, NEVER give it straight to the seller, you will NEVER see it again, even if the seller defaults.

Josh,You have to go through the files manually, record the information you need (property address, executor, attorney, etc...) into some sort of spreadsheet or on paper.
