for more details refer to
29 Grape Arbor in Northwood II (another flipper listing coming to an MLS near you)

------

The flipper raise per square feet price from $323 to $423.

WTF ! Increase $100 per square feet in less than 2 month.

??-

BTW. The flipper used to be listing agent himself.

After earning fatty profit from previous flipping

The flipper is so rich now.

He hire a realtor as full time employee under his Gxxxxx Corp.

The new employee work as listing agent for the flipper.

Now the flipper is relieved from listing duty.

He can focus most of time on flipping instead of listing.


?????????????-

On the listing statement, it reads "Listing agent is the owner. Corporate owned free & clear"

Owner is the Seller. The seller himself is listing agent.

The seller establish a realtor company Gxxxxx Corp.



So why does he not sell the property as corp-owned under Gxxxxx Corp ?

Instead the flipper list the property under Winslow Lane Trust 124.
 
As a buyer we need to know the difference between Winslow Lane Trust and Gxxxxx Corp.

Following is my understanding:

Could anyone tell me whether my understanding is correct or not?

Winslow Lane Trust will be dissolved after the flipper sold the property.

However, Gxxxxx Corp still exist after the flipper sold the property.




Before purchase transaction

Winslow Lane Trust net value is $500,000

Gxxxxx Corp. net value is $3,000,000 (hypothetical)

After transaction

Winslow Lane Trust net value is $0

Gxxxxx Corp. net value is $3,500,000 (hypothetical).



6 months downn the road, if buyer find undisclosed defect of the property.

He want to file complaint or lawsuit against Winslow Lane Trust.

He will only learn that Winslow Lane Trust does NOT exist anymore.

This property was built in 1998, so it's past builder warranty. As a buyer, you should get a good inspector and make a list of defects for the seller to remedy before escrow, unless if it's sold "as is". You can also have the seller pay for home warranty package.
 
Here is another listing from the same flipper

27 Secret Garden

3,069 SQF

$949,000

Here is what he said
"Bring All offers with 30 day Escrow"
"Please provide pre-approval letter with credit scores and proof of funds with all offers."



He want to escrow in 30 days.
Not to waste any single day of his time.
He does not care if buyer have enough time to inspect for termites, plumbing, defect ...

All He want is : to load his hands with quick cash.

So he will be ready for next flipping at other cash-strapped buyer's expenses.

Here is agent remarks:

I've actually dealt and spoke with these guys concerning my offers on 11 Laurel Glen and 29 Grape Arbor. It is 2 brothers and 4 money guys (ex mortgage brokers) who teamed up to flip homes earlier this year. Their main focus has been South OC but they have been having success with their Irvine acquisitions. The group has done about 12 flips in 2009 with all but one being profitable, not bad at all.

They knocked it out of the park on 29 Grape Arbor...cash buyer who paid $100k over comps. They did fine on 11 Laurel Glen and will do a little better on 27 Secret Garden. As for Winslow, they won't make much money at all...I think it was a stretch for them to pay $420k for this property at the auction (I would not have paid more than $380k for it at the auction). I just don't see Winslow closing for much above $475k-$480k due to its size and location but they won't lose money on the flip.
