@Shari Azama- thanks   1) if you are  interested in buying more properties - consider getting pre approved to make sure you can obtain financing that you might need   2) working  for a  family owned  business  may be an issue so getting pre approved will help address this  3) best  and most simple way to escalate paying down the loan is to try to make one extra payment per yr  4) if considering moving and  renting out the condo in the future - check with your HOA to make sure the  unit can become a  rental unit  ( some complexes dont allow this ) - thanks 

@Sweta Jain we just keep it simple.

Subject-to essentially means "if this, I will that", and that's it, just that simple.
