Which scenarios would a wholesaling contract not be assignable? Thanks.

@ Ashish Acharya I forgot to mention: I have an LLC. Also, I won't hold the property. Technically, I will own the property for about 5 minutes. Will I have to pay capital gains tax? Thank you sir.

@ Rick Pozos Thanks for your reply Rick. I was under the impression that a blind HUD-1 can only be used with cash buyers. I'm a newbie. I will wholesale pre-foreclosures. I want to include buyers utilizing a HML, and private loans because I want an auction type of sale, highest bidder gets the property. Is this feasible? Do you recommend that I search for a title company that will do a blind HUD-1 for buyers that are taking out a loan? my wholesaling fee will be 20k, sometimes less. As you know, time is of the essence with pre-foreclosures. However, I may be able to get an auction extension or a TRO, which will buy me more time.

Mike, I read the post regarding the investor that sued the seller. He mentioned that wholesalers need to be licensed. Many people told me that's not true. Confused.

Newbie question. As a wholesaler, if I do a sub to transaction, is there any way I can not disclose my wholesaling fee to the seller, such as a blind HUD-1? Also, does escrow/title create a settlement statement for the sub to transaction? Thanks.

Newbie question. As a wholesaler, if I utilize a double close, how will this strategy affect my income taxes? What's the bottom line, will I pay more taxes than I would if I did a traditional real estate transaction? Thanks.

@ Chris Seveney
Is a blind closing disclosure the same as a blind HUD-1? I was told from a few different wholesalers that escrow/title will do a blind HUD-1 if it's a cash buyer. The seller will not see the buyer's closing costs.

@ Rick Pozos. Instead of a double close, why can't you use a blind HUD-1? A double close entails higher closing costs.
