its a classic sub too rip the rents scenario.. and why I personally think Sub too is extremely dangerous for the average seller.. there are NO assumptions any more.. banks dont' do that.your person who is on the loan has now got her credit trashed because of this.. they don't own the home its a nightmare situation.. of the first order.you would have to find the sleaze ball who bought the deal and get them to deed it to you..

I'm concerned that this will be a problem for my prospective buyers post-rehab when they try to obtain financing.
