Buying RE is nothing like buying index funds or stocks - Google it for 15 minutes, click on buy shares.

You can click on the magnifying glass in the upper corner I will repeat as I do every time.

Here we're tripped by the latter.The debate on this thread centered on who is legally responsible for payments on a loan taken Subject-To.

RBTR is his primary strategy in DFW and can probably share a few tips/recommendations with you. 

I'm relatively new to this and am grateful for any advice from the forum. 

I've been reading more about subject to and here's what I've learned:-Good for sellers who are off market-Have low to no equity-Have a mortgage with a low interest rate (less than 5%)-Be absentee or out of state (vacant property, or have a tenant)The buyer would then take over the mortgage payments, and have the seller sign the deed over to the buyer.

It isn't a big job but I don't want things to go south so I stay in it.Of course I practically live on this forum so I pass along any pertinent info I find as well as answer questions.

After that, it may depend more on the workload of the inspector.

Is there a better way to do this? 

Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.2.
