​Getting rentals with zero down

Hey guys..

Trying to wrap my mind around this.

I heard about concept of getting homes with no money about of pocket because you find foreclosures and (I thought the word was) assume their mortgage.

The way I heard it was that the owner moves out, but keeps the mortgage going. You don't have to put any money down because your not qualifying for the loan.

You just find the renter to now offset that mortgage.

The owner gets out of their foreclosure status and their loan is getting paid on time now. Which helps their credit.

You're not taking 20% down to build your portfolio.

He says he did it with 30+ plus homes.

Has anyone else been successful doing this?

Looking to chat with anyone that has.

Thanks,

Eric
