Kate Answers: Assumable Mortgages - Bad Credit and Home Buying

Nick, Occasionally a seller's home loan can be taken over by a home buyer. This is referred to as an assumption. However most home loans today have built in clauses requiring buyers to undergo a formal assumption process with the existing lender.

Whether assuming a loan is advantageous to home buyers with tarnished credit is questionable. Currently interest rates are at all-time lows. Older mortgages available to assume may carry higher rates. Even so, this could be worthwhile to home buyers who can't purchase a house otherwise.

Tip: Finding a mortgage to assume starts with choosing a real estate agent. Because Realtors work around the clock with sellers, agents can save you hours of searching for a mortgage to assume on your own.

Here's another thought! Keep in mind the FHA home loan, a compelling alternative to assuming a mortgage. Go here to learn about FHA mortgages, an innovative solution for modern home buyers.
