Using the numbers above your end buyer would be buying the physical paper contract for $20k because you have assigned(sold) the original contract to the buyer. 

@Joshua McGinnis - great to see all that hard work in physical form. 

Guess we could make a better example if I were 45, of sound mind, but not physically able to travel, that might fly better.

Who physically holds onto your keys from a maintenance stand point?  

HUD requires wet signatures, physical contracts/addenda, and has very short time frames.

And remember, if you buy the hardcover, included in the bonuses is a PDF version of the book, so even if the physical copy ships a few weeks out, you can still start reading right away as soon as you send your receipt to [email protected]

I am hoping the paperwork comes through anytime before the 15th, because now nothing will stop me from removing them physically if it is within my right. 

That's where the real value in the real estate development process is, not in the physical build out.

My deal was I sourced the property, handled all phases of the remodel (I didn't physically do the work but hired all of the subs) and then listed the property since I'm also a licensed agent.

I was in much better physical condition back then though and that was a new roof not a replacement.
