What is an assumable mortgage?

An assumable mortgage allows you to take over the seller's existing loan, including its current interest rate and terms. This can lead to substantial savings, particularly in a high-interest rate market. UMe's expertise in assumable mortgages ensures you navigate this process seamlessly, securing the best deal possible.

Lower Interest Rates

If the current mortgage rate is lower than current market rates, assuming the mortgage allows the buyer to inherit this lower rate, resulting in lower monthly payments and overall interest costs.

Reduced Closing Costs

Assumable mortgages often have lower closing costs compared to taking out a new mortgage, as there's often no need for a new appraisal, loan origination points or fees, or other associated costs.

Easier Qualification

Assuming a mortgage can be easier than qualifying for a new mortgage, especially for buyers who might not meet today's stricter lending criteria or have less-than-perfect credit.

Flexibility For Sellers

For sellers, having an assumable mortgage can make their property more attractive to potential buyers. This increased pool of qualified buyers can lead to a quicker and more profitable sale.

Do You Have Any Questions?

Check out this FAQ to get more information

What makes a loan assumable?

All VA and FHA loans are assumable per the US Government. Technically other loans could also be assumable but most conventional loans have a Due on Sale clause. Simply put, this means if you sell the home, the lender has the right to be paid back.

Why is an assumable loan valuable?

If an assumable loan has a rate well below current mortgage rates, it is highly coveted. Buyers are able to take over that rate and payment. There is value in having a lower monthly mortgage payment.

How much down payment do I need?

The down payment needed is the difference between the sales price and the amount owed on the assumable loan. This varies with each home. In some cases, we have seen homes with ZERO down payment needed.

Do I have to have cash for the entire down payment?

UMe has lender partners that are able to help finance part of the down payment needed. There are also other creative financing options available to buyers and sellers.

If I sell with my assumable loan, am I still liable?

Once the buyer has assumed your loan, you are no longer responsible and have no liability for it.

If someone assumes my VA loan, have I lost my entitlement and ability to get another VA loan?

The short answer is no. You have not lost your entitlement. VA phrases it as encumbered. Once the loan is either refinanced or paid off, your entitlement is fully restored. Until that time, you may still have bonus entitlement and the ability to get another VA loan. Call us for details.

Can UMe work with my agent?

Of course. Our business model is built around educating agents and arming them with all the tools they need to help buyers and sellers take advantage of this true win-win.

What does UMe charge?

The buyer paid fee of 1% of the purchase price is paid upon a successful closing and through the transaction closing costs. This assures everyone a stress-free experience.
