Hello, Fellow Investors.
I have found a seller who is having problems selling their home. He has little equity. He is interested in doing a Rent-to-Own. I have signed a Option agreement with him with the actual intent to go out and find him a Tenant/Buyer. When i find the right Tenant/Buyer I will have the Seller sign a Direction to Pay. By signing this he agrees to pay me my fee which in the end will be seen on paper as an Option Assignment fee. I will also have the seller open up an escrow account with his lawyer so the Tenant/Buyer can transfer his funds. When i have the Tenant/Buyer sign all the agreements between himself and the seller. The Tenant/Buyer will then transfer his funds into the sellers escrow account. My lawyer will work with the sellers lawyer to make sure i get paid through the Direction To Pay. Basically the Seller buys back my initial option i signed with him at the start this is seen as an assignment of option fee. (not a commission)
Ideally, I would like to take my fee from the Tenant/Buyer not the Seller. But since lenders only like to see funds dispersed through Seller and End Buyer this is not possible. Or is there some other way to have the Tenant/Buyer pay me with-out the Lender raising flags when the T/B goes to qualify?
Please pic this idea apart so i have a decent idea on what road blocks are around the corner.
