Every listing on this page says the seller's loan can be assumed. On an FHA or VA loan from 2020 to 2022 that means a rate in the 2s or 3s instead of today's rate. The catch: you pay the seller's equity in cash or with a second loan, you qualify with the servicer, and the servicer takes 45 to 120 days. VA loans can be assumed by non-veterans, but the seller's entitlement stays tied up unless the buyer is also VA-eligible.
Of the 418 Colorado listings whose remarks say the loan can be assumed, 156 name a VA loan and 64 an FHA loan; the rest do not say which. The assumable rate is the whole reason to look: on the median $519K assumable listing with 20 percent down, a 3 percent assumed loan costs $1,750 a month in principal and interest against $2,762 at 7 percent, $1,012 a month less for the life of the loan.
The buyer does not need to be a veteran, but the seller's VA entitlement stays tied to the loan unless a veteran buyer substitutes theirs. VA charges a 0.5 percent funding fee on assumption. Colorado VA assumable homes for sale.
FHA loans written after 1989 assume with a full qualification by the servicer; investors are out on most. The FHA mortgage insurance stays with the loan. Colorado FHA assumable homes for sale and Denver FHA loan assumption homes.
You take over the balance; the difference between the price and that balance is paid in cash or with a second mortgage. On a home bought in 2021 with a 3 percent loan the gap is most of the appreciation since.
Assumptions close on the servicer's timeline, not the contract's. Write the contract with that in mind and keep a conventional pre-approval as the backup. The Colorado assumable mortgage guide walks the steps.
