@Jason D. My apologies for speeding through the initial post. This is actually the 1st mortgage/original. 

There are $150 in Hoa fees, the taxes are $650 annually, and the insurance is approx. $75/mo.

The Town Home was built in the '70's, and it could use a 'deep clean'/ replace floors (carpet). The HVAC was recently serviced, as well.

@Wayne Brooks I totally butchered that. I was in a rush to ask for help that I labeled it as a "2nd mortgage", its not. It's simply the unpaid loan balance (original mortgage) against the property. So the total amount for the loan was $52k. The remaining balance is $47k with $5k unpaid. The monthly mortgage payment for that loan is $420/mo.

Alright BP, any and all thoughts on this particular deal would be appreciated! I'm trying to solve a problem that a client is facing, but I'm currently having just a slight 'brain fart'. 

Owner has a property (Town Home), that they took 2nd mortgage out on; Balance: $47k (total was $50k'ish)

Owner has unpaid balance of $5k (reason for pre-foreclosure)

Mortgage payment of $420/mo

Auction is very soon = owner wanting to rid the property.

ARV is $75-$80k.

Repairs to get rent ready = $5k-$10k 

Rent for the area is approx. $1,100. 

I was looking to structure this as a subject-to deal and pay the arrears, to keep the property from going to auction and reinstating the mortgage. The owner is fine with sub-to, as I explained a few different methods in which we could assist. 

My question is, with the numbers stated above, how would YOU structure this? Does this make sense to sub-to with the figures I've listed? If not, I would like to hear how you would assist this individual. What methods, if any would you use to solve this person's problem. Thanks for any guidance!

Also, if I didn't post enough info, let me know and I'll provide what I can.

@Marisa R. Yea I agree. I should have read a bit further before asking for help. After sifting through all 18 pages, I've found your recommendations and that of others as well. Thanks for the tips!
