Hello my name is David Peterson I live in Troup,TX. I'm a full time Investor that has never done a Wholesale deal.I have done 5 fix and flips.But have never done any wholesaling.I understand the concept and know what to wright on the contract but when it comes to getting paid do I use a Title company? Or a Lawyer which is better? Does the A and B transaction need to be funded first? Then the B to C Fund in order to close that transaction? Or can I take the new buyers money have them put it in escrow with the title company use those funds to close the A and B keep the funds left over from the B to C closing. That's where I'm confused I'm also suppose to use an assignment of contract do I get that from the title company or an attorney? Or am I suppose to have that doc?

You can do an asignee contract to avoid the double closing. I don't know much about double closings so I'm unsure of the correct answer to your question however I BELIEVE you need to do the closing with A transaction first. i do know thAt you have to pay double closing costs.

 Thank you for your feed back here In East Texas we use an assignment of contract and a title company we use the TREC  form pur chase and sell agreement with the seller and we use the assignment of contract for our buyer that's it buy for 1 price 10000 sell for a higher price 12000 and on your assignment fee is 2000 buy brings the money to closing which pays the seller and the assignor  whispered is you 2000 and that's it. Howe very you must disclose to all parties that you will make a profit or they will get angry with you. Just a tip I learned recently.
