My husband called the lawyer at that point (I had him do it because he knows the mortgage industry much better than I do, and it turned out he and the lawyer had some colleagues in common.)Dealing with the lawyer was a little frustrating, because he was obviously pretty unfamiliar with sub2s and kept dramatically warning the seller about the potential pitfalls (the mortgage remains in his name, etc.)Eventually, we worked it out by putting these two clauses in the contract. 1) If we miss one payment, the seller can take the house back. 2) We will refinance into our names within three years.After the paperwork was finished, we mailed a check for $1,200 to the lawyer and he sent us the paperwork.After that, we did more waiting for the seller to be ready.I emailed the seller at the end of April reminding him the paperwork would expire at the end of the month and we'd need to have the docs updated if we didn't sign them before then.He said he needed another few weeks to get ready.
