My advice on sub to is as follows1- COMPLETELY understand the process, implications, liabilities, and possible outcomes before engaging or attempting to engage in a sub to transaction2- Complete disclosure going so far as making sure the other part understands the transaction and possible consequences3- Utilization of an attorney experienced in subject to transactions for setup in such a way that provides some protections in case of default or in case the note is called4- Have a backup plan in case the note is called5 - only use for property that has a TRUE positive cash flow unless the buyer has substantial reserves I myself have purchased 8 properties subject to, but 5 of those were commercial properties which often have notes where a subject to is allowable.
