So far, every title company I've called seems to not understand what I mean when I ask them if they do double closings and assignments of contract.

I have a 3000sqft 7 unit apartment building under contract.

Hi, I'm looking to purchase my second deal but I had a few questions about the contract with a deceased owner.Ok, so a widow reached out to me wanting to sell a pair of properties in Texas, but it looks like her deceased husband is the only one on Title according to the county website.1) I'm assuming the Title company will be able to work out the widow, survivorship of the property and legally she'll be able to sell it to me?

This is in a house I'm under contract for. 

I do have tenants (2 year contract) in the house and a property management company to oversee it, however, my cash flow for the home is "-$650" per month. 

Kinda got lost at the first part of your email that says " you can get" I take it you do not own it now, how do you know if you can get it for 40k, do you have it under contract?

Suceed @ Airbnb, or watch the house appreciate and you execute the contract .

So here are two suggestions: 1) look up REI groups in the DFW area (most are in meetup.com) and attend many meetings and start networking and talking to investors, wholesalers and other professionals2) don't overthink it, make sure you know how to run comps, how to have a general idea of costs for a rehab, and get your first house under contract (you can use the TREC contract, and just add a 14 day option period, during which you will pitch the deal to investors like me and @Sam Nadar.

Usually in a regular contract the seller covers a basic title policy for the buyer but special endorsements added to the policy are the expense of the buyer.Anything is pretty much negotiable.

I found a buyer who entered into contract with the seller on 3/4/18.
