Yes, you don't have to be on the note (mortgage) to be on the deed.  One has nothing to do with the other.  The easiest way to do this is to have all parties on the Offer to Purchase.  The title company will use this information when preparing the settlement documents.  Cheers!

Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment in Chesterfield.

Purchase price: $190,000
Cash invested: $60,000
Sale price: $306,000

This was a hoarder house with great potential. Once everything was cleared out, the bones were great. The best feature is the huge screen porch. It was only a covered porch but once we screened it in, it became a wonderful focal point for this home. A real diamond in the rough.

Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

Purchase price: $114,000
Cash invested: $45,000
Sale price: $285,000

Off market hoarder house including two boats on trailers and a big block engine in the back yard. New Kitchen, roof, deck, flooring throughout, interior paint, HVAC, water heater and appliances. Quiet neighborhood near the Richmond Airport.

Behind the scenes: the renovation went quickly but the FHA buyer had some hiccups and took longer to close than expected. Nonetheless, she closed. Happy New Year 2023!

There is a good article on BizSense about how the city is trying to revamp their STR policies.

We are still very competitive on pricing even with the higher interest rates slowing down the traditional buyer.  This scenario will, however, open a lane for investors to fill the gap in housing by providing quality rentals and renovated homes.  Off market properties will give you the best options for your portfolio.  

Cheers!

Jon,

What is stated in your buyers agreement is what all parties are committed to.  If your agent had a 2K minimum fee, then that would have needed to be outlined in your agreement and signed by all parties.  At this point, you are committed to 2.7% of 40K and nothing more.  Good luck.
