The amount can vary, but it's typically subject to the lender's guidelines.Remember, communication is key.

Negotiating comes naturally once you properly analyze the deal.The gurus are another subject.

Most people are doing it incorrectly, so do your own independent research and don't follow the crowd, because right now--as least with respect to this particular topic--the blind are leading the blind.I just wrote a client advisory on this subject yesterday but can't post here.

I wanted to chat with people who have done subject to deals and see what had gone wrong with them?

Ask them if they know of anyone who is looking for an opportunity.Building trust is done through building a brand, and becoming an authority on the subject matter.

The best way to get in tune with the local market is to review what recent cash sales have been in the same community as the subject property.

@Jason Frink, this page seems to cover it:https://www.omglawfirm.com/arkansas-probate-intestate-succes...Here is a pertinent snippet from that page:If you don’t have a Will, the default order of descent goes like this: (1) full blood and adopted children of the decedent, subject to any dower, curtesy, and homestead interest of a spouse; (2) if no full blood or adopted children, then everything to a spouse of greater than three years or half of everything plus dower, curtesy, and homestead to a spouse of less than three years and the other half of everything to other heirs (per this table); (3) to the decedent’s parents or surviving siblings; (4) to the decedent’s grandparents or surviving aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.; (5) to the decedent’s great-grandparents or surviving great aunts, great uncles, etc.; (6) if none of those intermediate descendents are alive the remaining half can go to the spouse of less than three years or to a predeceased spouse’s heirs; (7) finally, if none of these apply, all the property escheats to the county where the decedent died.A good way to visualize the order is to imagine the following scenario: Alfred dies without a Will.

We are currently looking at three types: contract for deed, seller finance, subject to.The hurdle is, we both have no experience with special types of financing and have no idea who to talk to.

Question 1: Is anybody familiar with how to do a 'subject to' on a hard money loan?

If you know of any good resources—books, threads, podcasts—on the subject, I’d also appreciate the recommendations!
