Your name and credit would stay with the existing note, which you would keep paying on - ideally yourself with money you receive from the "buyer", because if they don't pay your credit is wrecked and your house is in foreclosure.If you search on here you'll see everyone and their brother looking to do Subto and it's a nightmare unless the buyer has the funds to pay the note off if/when the original lender figures out you don't occupy the property any more and are attempting to do what you want to do, since most loans are going to specify that performance.  

Unfortunately I was not able to put much away for retirement most of my life so I was thinking about attempting to buy 4 rental units over the next 4 years with the hopes of building up something that could generate income in 5 to 7 years to supplement my retirement at 68.

Quote from @Adam Macias: Wholesaling as it is today will be a thing of the past.It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it.The more people try wholesaling but then end up not having an end buyer or cancelling contracts or trying weird things like novations, the more all of real estate will be regulated and cause requirements like licensing to be able to transact more than just your personal resident purchase.Which I don't know why hasn't happened sooner.Here's all the states (in red or yellow) requiring a license to wholesale or at least have started the process:Credit: REITipsterI think licensing and regulation is a beautiful thing that should happen if you plan to be an wholesaler and do more than one deal... which is going to be the case for anyone taking this business seriously.Or even it being regulated to need a real estate agent to do more than one deal outside of buying a personal residence.I've had plenty of failed attempts with agents in pursuit of wholesale deals and I know exactly why, it's not because the agent couldn't find me deals, it's just not practical to think there's opportunity for the numbers a wholesaler needs to make a profit on top of everyone else needing to these days.Because the only sellers who truly can sell at a deep enough discount are usually those who ran out of time and just didn't do something sooner with their situation.I know many coaches and gurus will disagree with me but there’s no regulations on youtube gurus and what they teach either.If we look at the current state of the market in hot cities, the availability of online resources to the average homeowner, how many deals can you possibly believe are available at 70% of ARV?

Don't attempt to figure things out on your own or act as a GC or PM when you are using other people's money. 

And it's wrong for you to attempt that.

We are attempting to collect a $572,379.35 judgment against Chau Ong for investment fraud in Texas.
