Wholeselling Land and flipping land

[McKoy Allred]

I have signed a purchase agreement and put earnest money down on land. The contract says I can assign this deal to someone else. My question is can I market to sale this land while I don't yet own it? I would be selling my "interest" in this land. 

Thanks!

Is the owner under the impression you will show up to the closing table with the funds to purchase the land? I can't speak to the legality of marketing your interest in the land without the owner's permission, but I can speak to the ethics. Be transparent; tell the seller this particular parcel is missing the mark for your criteria but you have a network of investors you work with who would parter with you, fund the deal, and pay you out a fee at closing to cover your risk and marketing spend; the sleep well at night :)
