I often buy using Subject To to buy properties. If you choose to use this technique these are some of the Pitfalls to watch out for. You can build a very strong portfolio, if you take proper precautions.
Subject To P...

Domicile: WA State (income tax free)Property location (Texas): (income tax free)LT gains + Depreciation recapture ~ $300k on a $500k income property ~effective / average tax rate = 12% for past umpteen yrs (relatively low income, avoiding IRMAA and doing Roth rolls (no 'realized' income, just transferring from tIRA to Roth = vast majority of annual MAGI income)In the end (coming soon, ~17 yrs) ALL remaining estate will go to charities / Charitable Foundation / DAF.

This is generally due to the fact that this is how the American housing giants – Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac – government-sponsored agencies, separate their loan programs.Note that this is another example of where real estate “lingo” doesn’t always match with the standard English Language!

I could get behind you taking on a live in flip because the downside risk is fairly limited (it's a place for you to live if things go sideways, and you can take 2 years to slowly do all the work and reap the tax free gain).The way that you get killed in real estate is by running out of cash and/or being a forced seller.

Feel free to message me if you have any questions about it. 

Just because you don't call it "interest" doesn't mean it's an interest-free purchase.If they are incapable of getting financing through a bank, that indicates they are high-risk.
