You’ve got the right idea. Now just do it.

Advertise these properties for sale to the kinds of buyers who are appropriate. For a price that is more than your optioned price. Advertise for a price above what you would take for the properties, so you can be negotiated down and make the buyer feel great.

You can then either sell the options to the buyers or else do a double closing or double escrow. In this situation, you have two escrows for each property, one between your seller and you and a second between you and your buyer. The buyers money comes in, you sign some documents and the deed comes to you then you deed out to the buyer. This prevents your buyer from knowing your purchase price, if you worry that the buyer may not be happy to see how much profit you are making.

You probably should buy and read the book “Flipping Properties” written by Bill Bronchick and another author. It’s paperback, costs less than $20 on amazon.com

I just locked two properties using options, but I am very confused with what to do now, and how to market the options. Both properties are good investment properties, but I would just like to make some quick cash by selling the options. Please give me your input on what you would do or have done in a situation like this…

In the book, How To Use Real Estate Options To Control Undervalued Property by Thomas J. Lucier, there’s a whole chapter on how to market and assign real estate options. I bought my copy at amazon.com
