No need to run away, just quietly say "Thanks but no thanks" and stroll on down the road!

Jeremy, Many times good flip homes sit on the market as most buyers want a turn key home that looks pretty.

They set it up to be the equivalent of 135 hours, which the BRE determines is the standard to sit for the licensing exam.

But really, if you have the right team in place then you can make your offer and let it sit there until lender approval, so it's not much work on your part.

Since I don't have that kind of cash sitting around, I would need private or hard money loan to finance the purchase & rehab costs.If I budget $25K in points/financing for 4 months, a 5% Realtor commission to sell the house and other incidental costs, my total expected costs would be around $600K, leaving $25-50,000 profit depending on final sale price. 

Personally, I think he shouldn't be able to read the whole thing while you two are sitting there.

That means you can take classes and get your license in one state, and then just sit for the exam in the other state without having to take the classes.

Am I am yo do a quiet title action?

There have been a rash of shortsales in my area but nothing alarming, definitely a decent quiet neighborhood with very little crime.
