There may be some local issue or state tax issue, maybe a transfer tax applied to non-owner occupied, don't know, but Steve makes a good point, state your initial intentions.Such a question is not part of a quit-claim deed to convey title, so what ever it is that you have asking the question must be related to local customs and requirements.

The trick is convincing the seller to wait a few months for their payoff, and also convince them that you're not trying to scam them (for people not involved in real estate, this can sound complicated) -- but if you can get the seller to agree, it's obviously a great position for the investor.I'm actually in the process of negotiating with a private seller using a seller financing/holdback...this may be another great strategy to try with this seller...Thanks Brian!
