I'm hoping to connect with some experienced investors who can offer guidance and answer some questions.Hey Ashley!

Adding details and specifics can help get to the answer or direction you're looking for.

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.  

Your answer needs to make sense, and be true.Also refi'ing your current primary into an investment loan also has the potential to be fraudulent if your family still occupies it as their primary. 

Please message me and I can answer any questions you may have on real estate, local meetups or the local area.  

The building is likely an old (100 yrs. or more) uninsulated or under-insulated wood frame building, possibly with the original single pane windows.

We learned through this process that when we don't have the answers, we need to ask for help.

I also realized last night (after I made my original post, of course) we could do a HELOC on our primary residence.

But this right here..... this is a solid answer.
