New rules for real estate wholesaling
The law sets clear rules for wholesaling real estate contracts. It defines a buyer’s equitable interest after signing but before title transfers. Wholesaling means assigning that interest for more than the buyer agreed to pay. A wholesaler must tell the seller in writing, before signing, that they plan to market the contract. They must also tell any assignee, in writing, what interest they hold. If assignment is allowed, the seller must get the assignment’s effective date at least three business days before it takes effect. These disclosures must be in bold, large font and in the written agreement. The rules apply only to real estate and take effect immediately.
Two-year deadline to sue wholesalers
Any lawsuit for a violation under this part must be filed within two years after the purchase contract is signed. After two years, claims are barred. This reduces long-term risk for wholesalers but shortens the time for sellers or buyers to seek relief.
