On HUD REO transactions, all NON Owner Occupied $50K and below is non refundable $500 and over $50k is $1000 non refundable, its been that way since i got my NAID number in 2008, for Owner Occ. there are reasons ernest can be refunded, but its not common, i think i was involved in one that got refunded, in maybe 150 transactions. 

Depending on your price range there may be very little commission per transaction and from an agent's perspective the time spent looking at properties may not be worth the return.

@Shawn Smith that would be a prohibited transaction.

At any rate, He handles "regular" transactions but also has his own portfolio of investments so is one of those who understand and could help.

Looking to find an escrow company in NJ who have extensive experience with creative real estate transactions.

I originally joined thinking I would learn all of the aspects of real estate working with someone who has invest properties and a few years of transactions under their belt.

These factors include, population growth, economic expansion, and real estate affordability.Real Estate AffordabilityWhen taking real estate affordability into account, crossing San Francisco and Denver off the list immediately is the likely the right choice.

The transaction was done at an attorney's office and processed through a title company, it did not involve lenders or realtors. 

To be exact, $5,000,000 in loan transactions a year.There might be a potential market for a middle man that would allow people that do not $5,000,000 a year to get some of the data.For example, many investors would love to find non performing loans in only one zip code.

I am an experienced CA Broker with a few years of background both in traditional Real Estate transactions and loan process.
