What is a Subject-To Offer?
A subject-to offer is a real estate investment strategy where you purchase a property "subject to" an existing mortgage. Instead of taking ownership of the property outright, you assume the seller's mortgage payments.
How Does It Work?
Identify a Property: We find a property with a motivated seller with a need to sell.
Make a Subject-To Offer: We present an offer to the seller, stating that we'll assume their existing mortgage.
Close the Deal: Once the seller agrees, the property is transferred into our name, and we begin making the mortgage payments.
Why Choose a Subject-To Offer?
No Down Payment: You don't need a large down payment to acquire the property.
Potential Profit: As property values increase, you can refinance, sell the property, or continue to hold it as a rental property.
Building Equity: By making mortgage payments, you'll build equity in the property.
Important Considerations:
Seller Approval: The seller must agree to the subject-to terms.
Mortgage Terms: Understand the terms of the existing mortgage, including the interest rate, monthly payment, and any prepayment penalties.
Legal Implications: Consult with a real estate attorney to ensure you comply with all legal requirements.
