FDIC audits the banks for compliance...

Should I follow through with it and pull the trigger?

Closing costs wouldn't change, and I'm not sure, but here you would trigger thhe transfer tax since you are "transferring" the title From your LLC To a land trust, same as to a new buyer.

I've been researching wholesaling for a couple of months now and there is only so much reading you can do before pulling the trigger.

I have worked with investors finding sub2s, LOs and regular flips, but never actually pulled the trigger myself and this is honestly the most daunting part for me.

Any time you pool together funds from investors for the purpose of lending it to others, you have created a security and must make sure your are in compliance with securities law.

You don't have to give it to them, you could say no and so can they and you could give the earnest money back and forget the whole thing.If you don't have an inspection, make sure the borrower is paying for it, the lender can order one if you don't have one.See what you purchase agreement says about compliance with usual and customary requirements, it is a part of the review process, not always but can be, especially if a notation to an issue was made by a past appraiser.You never know what lenders have in their files or what some phone calls can bring to light

I’m left wondering what’s necessary to trigger USAA foreclosure/the timeline in which USAA is handling their foreclosures?

This is critical, with regard to the 30 days that the bureaus are allowed to investigate the dispute.Second, by using template letters, you vastly enhance the likelihood of triggering a "frivolous or irrelevant" response from the credit bureaus.
