@Maurice George get over yourself. This is old news and the seller is very happy with the outcome. (which you haven’t even bothered to inquire about) You don’t know me and I’m not coming back on here to reply to you. I’m sure you've made many mistakes in your day. Again, move on. I’m not interested in dealing with arrogance.  

Be kind, help people. 

@Daniel Kim hi Daniel. Sorry for the late reply. I don’t come on here anymore. I find some people weren’t helpful when I came on here to ask for help and instead got attacked left and right. A handful were helpFul. Anyway, yes I did. It was resolved within just a couple days of posting this. All I did was get a form notarized and I sent it back to the court hours. Everything worked out well for the seller. She was able to get the house sold and we all walked away with no hard feelings. I happened to listen to a “coach” who told me to do this and it’s very common, it wasn’t even a lien that I had put on this. My original post was worded wrong but I wasn’t able to wasnt able to edit it.  

@John Thedford @Tom Gimer @Wayne Brooks

I think you all have made some good suggestions based on your experience and knowledge and provided good insight. In all honesty, if I had any reason to believe my actions were wrong, you think I’d be posting a question like this for all to see? I was asking for help on a first time situation, not looking to be attacked. If this were something I’d practice daily and hurt people, I would probably justify the bullying and harsh remarks. 

The sellers are good people. I only tried to protect my deal from other wholesalers who were trying to take my deal. It wasn’t an attempt to hurt the sellers, now I see how it can cause challenges for them. While I’m taken back by your accusations of me being a thief or scammer, I have pretty thick skin and will certainly take note of some of your valid points.

@Ron Flatt Thanks for the encouragement. Definitely a lot of lessons learned for me here. 

@Greg H. Yes, I’ve already taken steps to make this right, I don’t have a reason not to. That’s why I asked the question in the first place...I was hoping someone could guide me to where I could find a form so I could take care of it. 

And don’t worry, as far as I know, they’re not on Bigger Pockets. 

@Ned Carey @Ron Flatt

Thanks guys. I appreciate your help, that’s really what I came on this forum to do was ask for help.  There’s more to the story but I’m not willing to post anything on here anymore.  I thought BiggerPockets was a safe place, I thought it was a place for education and support. I understand if I’m doing something wrong there’s the way to communicate this and assist. Never in my wildest dreams did  I think filing a notice of memorandum to the court was “unethical”.  I’ve never scammed anyone, those who know me and work with me can attest to my character. I’ve done my part to resolve this, by signing what they sent. 

You do you, boo. Sounds like you’re all over the place commenting left and right on everyone’s posts misinforming everyone. And by the way, the new law is regarding disclosures on marketing efforts, which I clearly had in black and white. Theres nothing wrong with wholesaling, you just don’t like it. You have no clue what was I’m my contract so, you’re speaking out of turn. C-ya

@John Thedford I absolutely want to do right by the seller, I don't have a problem releasing anything, and I don't need to be paid anything to do it, I just wanted to know how it was done so she could be on her way.  I was not fraudulent nor did I scam her in anyway. I explained to her what I was doing with the house and our contract was very clear that I has the option to assigning it to another buyer.... so I'd probably not speak if you don't have all the facts.

Sounds like you've got it all figured out and sounds like you've never made a mistake...you're the master of all things real estate, nice!

Anyway, I've contacted a real estate attorney and I'm good...so have a good day.

Thanks @John Thedford and @Wayne Brooks for the support! I'm new. This is my first one and in no way was I trying to be malicious or hurt the seller. There were other wholesalers trying to go around me and talking to her so I was trying to protect the deal I had worked on. I'm sure you've made mistakes at one point and reached out to others for help. That's what I'm doing here.  And this is something I was told was required to do...after the fact, I'm finding out it's not...No need to be jerks, just a way to guide me would be great. I'm willing to release it at no cost to her, I've heard other wholesalers say I should charge a fee to release it, or have the new buyer compensate me to release it, but I'm not looking to be that guy... I'm just looking for form to sign and get her on her way... Again, I did it because someone said it was just another step in the process..now I know.. but thanks anyway.

Help is appreciated on my first wholesale contract. I put a property under contract with a 30 Day Option period. After we signed I could not find a buyer. (I offered about 20k too much) Seller wouldn’t go down. I filed a memorandum at the courthouse. Option period passed and we had no sale. A month late the seller calls to ask why I put a lien on the house and if I’d release it by Friday. I don’t mind doing it but not sure how to. Do I wait for the new buyers title company to reach me or is there a specific form I can print and get it over with? Does it have to be notarized? Where do I send it? She’s also upset that we had a contract and I didn’t come through. My contract specifically said it was Contingent upon further inspection and my approval. Thanks in advance. Angie.

Hey guys. My brother wants to FSBO one of his properties. Can someone help me with the steps for paperwork etc?

I have made an offer on a property because the seller said she wouldn't take less than that....here's the problem, contractors and other potential buyers have indicated the numbers don't work and I'm selling too high....What the best way to renegotiate with the seller without coming across like all I'm wanting to do is profit?
