CONDO ASSIGNMENTS FOR SALE

DEFINITION
An assignment (i.e. purchase) of the right to purchase a property. Specifically, it can be the transfer of a contract to purchase, before occupancy. After occupancy, the property can be sold and is classified as a 'resale'.

WHY ASSIGN AND NOT SELL?
The City has not given the permission for Occupancy yet. It cannot be a sold using conventional methods.

EXAMPLE
A Buyer just bought a new Condo. The Builder has given the Buyer the RIGHT TO ASSIGN the unit (sell the agreement) to another Buyer. This may happen for various reasons:

• Buyer must sell
• Buyer wishes to take out equity
• Property appreciated and Buyer wishes to re-invest appreciation 
• Market outlook looks bad

Many have taken advantage of the 'good times' and have been 'flipping condos' for investment purposes. Many clients have bought over and over only to be MORTGAGE FREE today.

It is an art to flip condos before they are built. This form of investment is not for the faint-of-heart. You need a knowledgeable real estate agent with financing capabilities to get into the game.

You are advised as to the builders, their success and mentality, the areas, why some are good buys and why others are not...
