To me, any property, not just a short sale should remain active until the offer has been accepted and signed with a copy in my hands.

I am far from a book and tape junkie, and if anything I think most of the real estate investing courses sold out there aren't worth the paper or plastic that they are printed on.Now, here is my analysis of Rapid Flip USA.

If they have not already sold it, you might get them to settle for a lien release.

But I see no reason why they should have a copy of my credit report/social security number such: Most Realtors I've met simply put potential buyers on an automatic emailer script that sends out mls listings.

Palin even tried to copy the word in the debate.

(In our case it was a local credit union.)2) We set up the out of country investors with an attorney that could/ would handle setting up a company for them to purchase real estate here in the USA.3) We than took the newly set up company to the portfolio lender and qualified for a portfolio loan.4) Sold properties to the investors (company).I have really simplified the process, but it took some time and lots of efforts.

Once you do, put him in touch with the wholesaler, at the price you sold it, and tell him to pay you your markup at closing.

I need to eat some crow with my "most" comment in reference to FHA loans.I do about a dozen rehab to retails a year and the last one I sold was was via a conventional loan but it was almost two months ago, so my current interaction with retail is not as up to date as some other investors.After I made my post I contacted a friend of mine who does 4 or 5 times the rehabs to retails I do, and he hasn't sold a house on a conventional loan in 2 months.

If you aren't geting any response from an agent and its been over 100 DOM with no signs or lockboxes chances are it was sold, or taken from our inventory.

A real estate agent I know is emailing me a blank copy of your standard "sales agreement" form. it's my understanding that its fairly flexible though at this stage and pretty much any arrangement you work out with the buyer is o.k. as long as both of you agree to it.
