However, never done a Subject To.....just never had a case that necessitated it. 

Fall, winter..who knows.i used to rent in chelsea when my company paid for it a studio for over 2k, it was about 200sqft, couldnt fit on the toilet without my head touching the door (it was slanted to fit into the apartment). i started buying in NJ, Hudson county condos and 2 families in 2016 when all my friends thought its a joke to move to jersey. what others said, esp in NYC, luckily the shift is now necessitated, due to millenials trying to afford some place to live (cant do it in Manhattan, even a studio is 400k), and covid makes them want more space, maybe a backyard?

Third, it is easier for me to pick up property for cash at this price point, if the deal necessitates it.

Yeap....this "strategy" would necessitate a cash purchase.

Of course, this also necessitates locked equal terms on the HELOC as on the conventional mortgage, which is not the norm in my experience, lest the compounding interest savings rapidly disappear.  

However, the amount of time that the door will need to be off the hinge while it's being worked on might necessitate just replacing it.  

Placing a range in the basement would necessitate fire separation between the basement and main floor, so we simply exclude the range.

It's not uncommon for home buyers to have existing leases they need to honor themselves, and other considerations, that necessitate waiting a couple of months before moving.Finally, as a landlord, be very careful not to use (or even sound like you're considering) age, familial status, or disability as factors in tenant selection.

An added layer of complexity is that the guy did not have a will which may also necessitate getting a lawyer involved.Help me out BP!

Pragmatically I thought that having more rental properties would diversify my risk from vacancies.The owner occupancy requirement I was referring to the ones necessitated for a FHA loan.
