All it means is you are taking over the current financing. Sometimes that is all you need sometimes you need to add some cash sometimes the seller will take a second mortgage for the difference.It is no big deal or any big secret but the seller generally needs to be pretty motivated because he is still on the line for the current mortgage

Hi,
I have heard about buying properties “subject to” but am still confused by the whole idea.
Has anyone ever used this technique?
Does anyone have any insights/thoughts/comments/tips on using this technique to aquire properties??
I read the article http://www.creonline.com/articles/art-183.html
however, it didnt really get into specifics
