Options… How do you show the house!? - Posted by Matt KY
Posted by Matt KY on July 01, 2002 at 15:25:44:
Say I get a seller to agree to an option. Or i just use a purchase contract and find a new buyer to assign it to…
when im trying to find buyers, HOW DO I SHOW THE THEM THE HOUSE?
If i show them the house while the owner is still there, they could discuss the price and i would be screwed over. if i can only do options on VACANT houses, then I’ll be lucky to find one deal a year.
surely people have found a way to show a house with the owner still there.
any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Matt,
I let the owners know what I’m doing (on need to know basis). One of my ‘buyer’s condition’ is the right to show the house for partner’s inspection and/or prospect tenants (prior 24hr notice) and they readily agree.Those I L/O to are ‘tenants’ and Flip to are ‘partners’. Since I have a signed contract, no one usually pulls a fast one behind me especially when I introduce them as partner or tenant.
Hope this helps?

say a “partner” shows up at the house, but they are a family of four. how can you introduce them to the owner as your “partner”? wont the potential buyer simply say, “wait a minute… im not your partner! whats going on?”
also you said, “Since I have a signed contract, no one USUALLY pulls a fast one behind me…” Has anyone ever pulled a fast one on you? how did you handle it?
sorry for all the questions, but im just trying to suck all the info i can out of all you experienced investors. =)

In regards to your example:
-Hasn’t the buyer “partner’d” with you to know of this deal? (it’s just a word terminology, and makes good business lingo)
-no one has pulled a fast one however buyer did question me, I comforted the buyer by helping them realize with my small assignment fee, they were purchasing at a bargain with lots of equity, sellers didn’t care they were in distress,and that did it!

if im sitting at the seller’s house writing up an agreement, what do i put in the blank…
“This lease option agreement goes into effect on _________”
I know if it was a vacant house, it would be the next day. But if a house is occupied, how does the seller know when it will be vacant? will i have to have a definite date set to do the deal?
i just dont want to start having to pay payments and the sellers are still in the house.
thanks so much for the responses!
