❓ Frequently Asked Questions – SubjectToDeals.com
📌 1. What is a Subject-To real estate deal?
A Subject-To deal is when a buyer takes control of a property subject to the existing mortgage. The loan stays in the seller’s name, but the buyer gets the deed and starts making payments.
✅ No new loan required
✅ No credit check for the buyer
✅ Often used for distressed or motivated seller situations
🏘 2. Is Subject-To legal in Connecticut?
Yes. Subject-To transactions are legal in Connecticut and across the U.S., as long as all parties fully disclose and agree in writing. We provide CT-specific forms and recommend working with a real estate attorney for proper structuring.
🔐 3. Will the seller’s mortgage remain in their name?
Yes. In a Subject-To deal, the existing mortgage stays in the seller’s name. The buyer takes over the payments and assumes responsibility for the property’s financial upkeep.
💬 4. Will the bank find out?
Possibly. Most mortgages include a Due-on-Sale Clause, which allows the lender to call the loan due upon transfer. However, this clause is rarely enforced when payments remain current. Still, it’s important to understand the risk and have proper documentation in place.
💰 5. How do I make money on Subject-To deals?
You can profit by:
- Renting or lease-optioning the property
- Selling it to a retail buyer
- Assigning the deal to another investor
- Holding it for appreciation and long-term equity
📄 6. Do I need a license to do Subject-To deals?
Not in most cases. You don’t need a real estate license to buy and sell your own deals. However, if you’re marketing properties for others or charging commissions, a license may be required.
