    @Kelly Hawks - that's awesome!  You're the first person I've actually heard of successfully negotiating a "subject to" deal in real life.  Was the deal brought to you that way, or did you suggest purchasing subject-to?

    @Thadeous Larkin - I negotiated this deal as a "subject to" because there just wasn't a huge margin and the seller agreed to it knowing that it would only be short term.
