Understanding Subject-To Real Estate is a practical, plain-language guide to one of the most powerful forms of creative real estate financing: purchasing property subject to an existing mortgage.

Tyrone Simpson walks readers through how subject-to transactions work, why buyers and sellers use them, the responsibilities of each party, and the steps involved in structuring and completing a transaction responsibly.

Readers will learn how to evaluate subject-to opportunities, communicate with sellers, work with title companies and real estate attorneys, understand existing loan obligations, review due-on-sale considerations, organize transaction documents, and identify the legal and financial risks that should be addressed before closing.

The book also includes practical examples, step-by-step guidance, study questions, and an educational 18-page Subject-To contract package designed to help readers better understand the paperwork and decision-making involved in these transactions.
