Doing first short sale...Plz. Help

New investor planning on doing very first short sale transaction.

I'm going to meet the homeowner this week, and would like to get all of the necessary forms signed.

The problem is that I don't have the forms yet. I found a site offering forms for sale...are there any suggestions for this?

The homeowner has two mortgages on the property.

Any help guiding me through this process will be greatly appreciated.

He, then, turns around and sells the home back to the homeowner at a discounted price, thus being the bank for that homeowner.
He has told me that he can do these anywhere in the country.

I bet he can do them anywhere in the country...until he gets caught. I wouldn't touch a scenario like that with a 10' pole.
