An investor friendly title company/ closing agent (or attorney in some states) should:

• Specialize in working with real estate investors to close transactions

• Have knowledge about wholesaling, double closing (simultaneous), hard money (transactional funding), and other types of transactions

• Commit to you willingly and be able to meet your demands

• Be someone you see yourself building rapport with naturally

• Have solid recommendations/reputation

​

​

So, How Do I Find My “Investor Friendly” Title Company? (One thing you should not do is whip out yellow pages)

 

Find your investor-friendly agent by:

• Talking to other local investors, especially other active wholesalers for recommendations. 

• Contact transactional lenders. They have many title companies in all 50 states that they can recommend for double closings

• Ask for a local referral in any of the wholesaling FB groups

• Reach out to your local REIA group. Information like this is often advertised in the news letter

• Network in real estate groups such as found on MeetUp.com

• ​

So, I have Some Recommendations, What Now?

• Meet with these closing agents/escrow agent/ title or closing officer and have a casual interview. Shake their hand, get to know them, and just hang-out.

• Ask potential closing agents:

            Do you work with real estate investors?

            Are you familiar with wholesaling?
            How often have you done double closes?

​

So, How Do I Know When I Meet the Right Closing Agent?

• Oh, trust me, you will know when you find “The One.” He/she will have all the right answers to your questions and you will get that warm and fuzzy feeling inside. Real estate investing although it revolves around property – it is very much a people business.
