I saw you asked a question to someone else in PA about "assigning" and how it is getting tricky. I think that was about how we may have to pay a transfer tax , even if you are only assigning the contract.

I am in Allentown, PA and I have some experience with no deal yet. You can contact me at cortesm80@**** if interested. Thanks!

Hi Martin, I am fairly new at this and I just checked my inbox and got your message. Thanks for the response. I wasn't sure what they meant by its getting "tricky" in PA. I have read some posts of people in other states stating that assigning is illegal in some states, for example Texas. I was trying to find if it is still legal in the state of PA. I am in Hanover, PA and have not done any deals yet. How long have you been an REI?

Thanks for the welcome and support. I like the advice you gave to "lakeside" under the "property management fees" post. I have checked my local phone book and found a couple management co. that I am going to check out. There doesn't seem to be any local REI clubs that I have found, but I want to start working on building a network of people (agents etc.) and see if they know of any local clubs.

I read several of your posts and watched the little video clip with Dean. You provide some good info that I am sure benefits alot members on the DG site.

Thanks again for the post and keep up the good work. Through my journey of REI I may throw a question at you now and than if you don't mind? Hopefully in time I will beable to give advice to help others as well.
