i'm definitely not interested in looking for an attorney in other markets, it's hard enough to find one in my market. i dont consider not being able to find an attorney a red flag, is just that they're not insured to do these kind of transactions i found out. i'm sure that other investors are doing subject to deals in north carolina and they're probably using an attorney, or this can also be done by you without an attorney, just need an attorney to prepare the deed. as far as the seller is concern, they have three choices when facing foreclosure, they can catch up their payments on their own, get help from an investor to make up the back payments and take over the loan and make the monthly payments until they're able to cash out and pay off the loan, and third,just go through the foreclosure and completely ruin their credit and i mean very bad credit. this is not a ploy it is happening all over the united states, it's just a little harder to do here in north carolina because it's an attorney state.
