Join us at the August MAREI meeting on Tuesday the 8th at 6pm at the Holiday Inn and Suites located at 8787 Reeder Road with the Teams from Accurate Title and Alpha Title, as they show you how to have a successful transaction at closing.  It’s not always as simple as shipping your contract to the title company and showing up few days or weeks later to close.  There is a lot going on behind the scenes that the investor needs to know and understand so they can assist in a smooth transaction.

Join us to find out

•  Why we actually need a title policy when we buy property
•  The basic steps to closing an investor purchase in Kansas & Missouri
• When you need a Notice of Intent to Sell in Missouri
• The documentation you will need when buying or selling in a Corporate Entity.

And the Common Issues that come up including

• What happens when the seller is incompetant or incapacitated and can’t sign for themselves.
• What happens when the seller is deceased, who can sell the house and when.
• How to deal with County Tax Liens and other Liens placed on the property by the county.
• How to deal with a State or Federal Tax Lien placed on the property by the taxing authority.
• What to watch  for when buying a property at a foreclosure auction, so you can resell it.
• And last, when you buy a property at a tax sale, what you need to do to have a clean and marketable title.

Because we are talking about isues that come up at closing, we have bit of homework for you if you don’t quite know how a closing transaction works.  If you have never purchased or sold a home, or have not completed enough transactions to be comfortable with a standard, no issue closing, Dave Green with Accurate Title worked with MAREI to record a webinar that covers the basic transaction from the signing of the contract to the closing of the sale  You can access this webinar by clicking here.

And because MAREI members are out there marketing for motivated sellers that have all kinds of issues personally that can affect the closing or in the title of their property that can affect their home, we are working on an all day workshop for those that want to dig deeper into problems.  Workshop to be on Saturday August 19th.
