Would love to get a wholesale template that has been used in MD

Member since 2023 · 3 posts · 0 votes

Hi wholesalers - I would love to get a template that you have successfully (and of course legally) used to close wholesale deals in MD.

I have a template with assignment clause that I downloaded from real estate skills.com which seems like a great website but I'd love to see one that has been used in practice and has clear clauses about 1)EMD and clear backout periods for seller, wholesaler and buyer that minimizes risk for each while still being a 'defacto' contract 2)assignment clauses. Not that the intent is back out, but one thing I'm trying to do is gaining a solid understanding of no-risk EMD (as long as deal is closed within a certain timeframe), - how to explain the risk reversal to the seller - and also the buyer.

I would be most thankful for the help and if you wanna join my network of MD/DC/VA based REI let me know.

@Russell Brazil can answer that one


 Not yet. But very likely will be on Oct 1 2024. 

They couldn't work out all the kinks in the wholesaling bill during the 2023 session. Maryland only has a part time legislature. So the wholesaling bill will be worked on during the off session season, reintroduced in January with a fully worked out bill, that will likely pass then take effect the following October.

A DC bill is being worked on currently and could be in place by the end of this year possibly.

    I think it's coming, but I don't think it's quite here yet, but I could be wrong, I don't do a lot of deals there. You can always double close though, so it doesn't change much.

     Fantastic insight. We all know these laws are coming, it's just hard to keep up with what every state is doing and when.

    to all - great questions - to my knowledge you are all correct. sort of! if the bill passes wholesaling will become illegal w/out a RE license. not a show stopper but definitely a thing to note! what I'm not sure of yet is how the bill will impact the double close strategy if you're not licensed. 

    in any case if there are any investors (experienced) who are interested in being on my buyers list let me know!

     The simple answer is you can still double close without a license, you are the end buyer. Now, if it ends up being similar to what Oklahoma did, you cannot publicly market the house until you have closed on the house, so there is that hurdle, but nothing that can't be jumped. :)

    I know I am late to this post but would love to connect with @Jennifer King about your experience wholesaling so far! We have a small team that does direct-to-seller cold calling here in Baltimore MD. We have an in-house attorney who writes all of our contracts (Sub-to, wholesale, Novations, etc). If you're interested in connecting let's chat soon!

    Our company is very much involved with the MD investor market from Baltimore to DC suburbs to the Eastern Shore, so anybody looking to talk contracts/terms, networking, JVing with other investors, and now it sounds like more attempted anti-investor legislation... feel free to connect.
