That was well said! When you buy something as a principal has nothing to do with the brokerage. It's important to get a statement if you're going to do a principal deal and you're the principal buyer or lesse or optionee or vendee but there's no money do the brokerage because you're not acting as a fiduciary agent and you are acting as a for-profit business person

Please look at the video link that I gave you in a previous post
Jv with the seller is better than 70% of ARV - costs because sellers make more money on the JV if it is minor Rehab

Hi, My name is Justin and I'm a newbie to REI but I am very eager to get started investing.
My background is in IT as a Systems admin and I've had my hand in a lot of other smaller business ventures. Now i am really trying to learn as much as possible about REI so i can put my best foot forward. I'm just about ready to take the next step, but i need some clarification.
I've been up and down forums, blog posts, videos and books and I am still unclear as to exactly what paperwork is needed for wholesaling lease options.
I'm Located on Long Island, NY and want to get this all straight before i begin calling leads.
I guess my main questions are as follows...
1. Do i need a separate lease agreement and separate option to purchase, or should it just be one solid document?
Separate
2. Is the letter of intent something entirely different from the lease and option to purchase?Is it a necessary document?
It is a Meeting of the Minds and acts as Escrow Instructions
Seller Side
1. Letter of Intent
2. Option
3. Lease
4. Memorandum of Agreement
5. Release Mortgage Info
6. Option Release Doc
7. Seller's Acknowledgement
Tenant Buyer Side
1. Earnest Money for Lease Option
2. Lease
3. Option
4. Option Release Doc
5. Tenant Buyer's Acknowledgement

You could do a JV with the seller
1. Buy it sub2 the loan, get on title
2. Use private money for rehab
3. Fix and resell, DONT FSBO, use agent
4. Get seller to give a note for equity, subtract sales costs, subtract 5% JV fee, get a moratorium
5. Everyone gets paid on re sale.

Here's the other factor that I just learned. The national board of realtors says that the seller has the right to market and sell the property. When you get the property under contract, you become the seller because you hold equitable interest, meaning you can market and sell that property legally, ethically, and morally.
It just comes down to people are upset that they are not making money. As an agent and an investor myself, I am going to wholesale a house for 10k vs. listing a property and making a lot less just to split a commission with someone.
any agent out there that has a broker like that just needs to pay the transfer fee to move to another firm
I agree that brokers have a financial motivation.
You are totally misguided thinking equitable title, equitable interest is the same as the ownership rights to title which are required when offering good title to real estate through any advertisement. If you're an agent, open up your old text book and refresh yourself as to the bundle of sticks, title rights and interests. Wholesalers need to offer the contract, not the property! Don't know where you heard that from the NAR, but I can tell you the NAR doesn't make laws.
Your last paragraph is predatory from gouging a price for your service if you aren't taking title. I know, you posted while I was typing.
Agreed, if an agent has that attitude, they really do need to move on. :)
Edited: Yes, personal transactions that don't run through the broker are not covered, yet, he still has "vicarious liability" for anything real estate related that an agent does, you also carry that broker's name, good will, reputation with you everywhere as long as your license hangs there, it doesn't matter if you are acting in your own interests, you're still dealing with the public. :)
