Hi everyone,I’m exploring options to refinance a multifamily apartment property and would love insights from those who’ve recently navigated this process.

At it's basic level:Assumption: Asking the bank to turn the loan over to you and going through the normal underwriting process, credit, income, DTI ratio etc SubTo: Taking over the loan without telling the bank, no underwriting, no credit check, no income verificationBoth have risks, but it's not my intent to be detailed in this post.
