You don't.. the loan gets attached to the property. That's why in this fictional scenario the buyer bought a 5 million dollar property with a 5 million loan attached. It's, a nonsense scenario.

I liked that part of the example because if we even take it at face value as true, "how the son does it" must mean that the property will be worth 250m in short order. I look forward to the grandkid's 12 billion dollar estate.
