Why Choose Assumption Solutions?

Don’t let your assumable mortgage stop you from entering into selling your home! Assumptions Solutions allows you to get top dollar for your property by completing a successful mortgage assumption with a qualified buyer. We work with you to ensure a smooth and successful closing, providing you:

Understanding Assumable Mortgage Terms

Together, we can review the terms and conditions of your existing mortgage, including the interest rates, remaining balance, and any specific clauses of your assumption. (Not all home loans are assumable, and you might need lender approval.)

Assessing Eligibility for Qualified Buyers

Does your potential buyer meet your lender’s criteria for assuming your mortgage loan? A buyer will most likely need to complete a credit check and demonstrate financial stability. They will also need documentation to prove creditworthiness or eligibility to complete the assumable mortgage transfer.

Lender Communication and Coordination

Assumptions Solutions can help you work through the assumption process with your lender to prove your required documents and respond to inquiries. You won’t be alone in the financial approval process with your lender.

Setting up Your Sale Agreement

Let’s make sure your sales contract clearly outlines the terms and conditions of your assumable mortgage, looking at your remaining balance, what terms you agree to with the buyer, and contingencies that protect you and the buyer in case your assumption is not approved.

Managing Timelines for Closing

Completing your mortgage assumption with the overall process of simply selling your home will have timelines. We help you prepare for closing that might have a few extra steps because of your home’s assumable mortgage listing.

FAQs Home Sellers Need to Know

What is an assumable mortgage?
This type of home loan transaction allows your buyer to take over your existing mortgage loan instead of securing a new mortgage. This is the “assuming” part of the process where a buyer takes over where you left off with your home loan to assume the remainder of your principal balance or repayment period.
YES! With the current housing market dynamics in Colorado Springs and across the country, more buyers are interested in mortgage assumptions when purchasing a new home. It’s a time when sellers are aiming to take advantage of historic low interest rates that many homeowners were able to secure through refinancing in 2020 and the subsequent years.

Most assumable mortgage loans fall under one of these categories:

 

  • FHA loan: If you have a loan backed by the Federal Housing Administration, it’s generally OK for a buyer to assume it with proper lender approval.
  • VA loan: These loans set up for our valued military members and veterans are assumable but require approval from the Veteran’s Administration or lender.
  • USDA loan: U.S. Department of Agriculture loans are assumable, in most cases, aimed at helping rural home buyers across the country.
  • Conventional loan: Most conventional loans don’t qualify for mortgage assumption. However, an assumption of mortgage after a divorce or death can be an option.
Sometimes, we want to sell our home to a family member; this is when you could consider an assumable mortgage sale. It is a great way to provide someone you love with a head start on owning a home with a low-interest rate you previously secured to keep the property in the family. Whether you want your mortgage to be assumed depends on your personal situation, loan terms, and what goals you’re looking to achieve in selling your home. We can help you weigh both the pros and cons.
This is a great question, and we’re happy to say that (in most cases) the answer is yes. When you handle this process with the right team on your side, like Assumption Solutions, we can show you how to relieve your debt responsibly and move on to your next home.
You’ll need to pay your real estate agent commissions, title transfer fees, and necessary taxes. However, as a seller with an assumable mortgage, there should be no additional or unexpected fees associated with the process outside of what’s standard for any new property purchase. It’s important to know what policies your lender has in place or Colorado (or any other state) laws that might impact your sale. We can help you understand regulations in any state!
