New Cash Offer Technology Quickly Identifies 1000 Assumable Mortgages in Seconds

assumable mortgage
An assumable mortgage allows the buyer to purchase a home by taking over the seller’s mortgage loan.

Identifying assumable mortgages in the United States can help all industry stakeholders. Dr. Jan Duffy REALTOR with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Nevada has partnered with FHA Pros, LLC, which is the industry leader, of the new technology to identify assumable mortgages quickly. It allows Dr. Jan Duffy REALTOR and her team to assist her clients in benefiting from assumptions effectively.

Using the latest technology solutions allows her team to identify properties with an assumable mortgage attached. We immediately have access to the seller’s loan details, providing buyers with the relevant information to make an offer to assume the seller’s mortgage.

“This technology assist the buyer and the seller with the assumption process,” says Dr. Jan Duffy REALTOR. She continues, “We provide the seamless assistance required to ensure compliance with assumption rules, making the process easier for everyone.”

My selling homeowner benefits from assumable mortgages because of the shortened contract period required for sales since there are no delays for things like setting up funding or getting appraisals. Meanwhile, servicers also continue to collect the same interest payments that would stop if the buyer were to obtain a new loan.

Buyers Benefit from Assumable Mortgages

Assumable mortgages let our home buyers take over an existing mortgage loan from a home seller. In this rising interest environment, the interest rate savings and terms of the original loan remain the same, resulting in potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings over the life of the loan.

There are about 11.4 million assumable mortgages in the U.S., making up 24% of all home mortgages. These are not conventional mortgages but loans backed by the Federal Housing Association (FHA), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), or the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

These government-backed outstanding loans allow a qualified buyer to take over from the seller. Until recently, borrowing rates were low, meaning that most of these loans have interest rates of between 2.5% and 3%. Assumable loans weren’t a well-known option until very recently. However, the demand for this financing mechanism has increased with the rise in home-loan interest rates.

All FHA, USDA, and VA mortgages are fully assumable by a buyer, meaning buyers can assume the existing rates and terms of these mortgages from the seller. Assumable mortgages give buyers significant savings from interest payments, costs, and the years required to repay the mortgage.

The buyer of an assumption mortgage enjoys the following benefits:

  1. Interest savings
  2. No new loan origination or funding fees.
  3. Shaves off potential years of payments
  4. No appraisal is required
  5. Possible mortgage insurance savings
  6. Pay no mortgage tax in states where it is applicable
  7. FHA buyers save on the 1.75% upfront mortgage insurance premium
  8. Faster processing
  9. Qualify for a higher sale price with a lower monthly repayment
  10. More buyers qualify when the repayment is less than that of a new mortgage seller Benefits of Assumption

 

Assumption also benefits the seller because the lower payment their loan offers creates more demand as more people qualify for the lower payment, which translates to a more attractive property and higher sales price. Once the assumption is complete, the seller is forever released from liability on the mortgage, enabling them to obtain a new mortgage in the event they are purchasing a new home. If you have a home with a FHA, USDA, or VA mortgage, and want to sell your home, reach out to Dr. Jan Duffy REALTOR.

At Speedy Cash Home Offers, we understand that selling your home can be a complicated and time-consuming process. That’s why we offer a solution that not only saves you time but also helps you get the best deal for your property – through our assumption program.

Our assumption program allows buyers to take over your existing mortgage, making the selling process faster and easier for both parties involved. And with this option, you can qualify for a higher sale price while still offering a lower monthly repayment for potential buyers.

But how does assumption benefit the seller? For starters, it creates more demand for your property as more buyers can qualify due to the lower payment offered by your loan. This results in a more attractive property and ultimately leads to higher sales
