VA and FHA loans are assumable!

What is an Assumable Mortgage?

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

Both VA and FHA loans are assumable, and anyone can assume either a VA or FHA loan.

For VA assumptions, the buyer is not required to have VA eligibility.

Benefits of an assumable mortgage:
✓ Buyer assumes seller’s existing interest rate
✓ Buyer assumes seller’s remaining loan term
✓ No appraisal
✓ Reduced closing costs
✓ No VA Funding Fee*

*There is no VA Funding Fee however the VA does charge a 0.5% flat assumption fee on all assumption loans. This fee is waived for veterans with a service-related disability rating or surviving spouses of veterans who died in service or from a service-related disability.

Why Assumption Loans Matter

  • Assumption loans largely irrelevant during the past 10 years due to extremely low prevailing mortgage rates
  • Assumption loan demand growing substantially in recent months due to inflation-induced rate hikes
  • In high-cost markets, housing affordability directly tied to interest rate

Average interest rate over 50 year period = 7.75%
Average interest rate since 1990 (post-Volcker era) = 6%

Example Scenario: $800K Home Purchase

Mortgage Rate Forecast

Fannie Mae: 30-year mortgage rates will average 7.1% through Q1 2024, tapering back to 6.7% by Q4 2024.

Zillow Senior Economist Jeff Tucker: “The best bet is that we continue to see mortgage rates in the ballpark of current levels, generally 6.5% to 7.5%.”

Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA): “2024 rates expected to range from current levels possibly tapering down to 6.1% by the end of 2024.”

National Association of Realtors (NAR) Chief Economist Lawrence Yun: “The new normal for mortgage rates looks to be near 7% for the 30-year fixed rate.”

Takeaway: Top industry experts predict mortgage rates will generally remain between 6.5% – 7.5% over the next 12 months. Furthermore, experts do not expect rates to drop below 6% in the foreseeable future even after the Federal Reserve tapers quantitative tightening measures.
