Im new to investing in manteca california and my question is when doing a wholesale deal do i simply need to have the owners sign a contract, and after asign the property to whom ever im wholesaling it to? Or do i need to have a memorandum of agreement signed and recorded with the County Recorder's Office also?

Thanks in advance

    Welcome aboard @Fernando Ruiz. I am new also. Have the purchase agreement signed. There is also a  part of the contract that should state you are going to or have the authorization to assign the contract. Therefore you are being upfront about the assigning or the possibility of assigning the contract.

    Welcome to Biggerpockets @Fernando Ruiz

    First is to have your assignable contract.then to protect yourself that is where recording is necessary especially when you believe there is alot of equity
