divorce-assumption

Posted on: 16th Jan, 2013 05:44 pm
I am getting divorced and I want my husband to assume the loan. Does an assumption loan relieve me of all debt and if in the future he is deliquent it will not hurt my credit rating. I do not want any potential problems to arise in the future. I am trying to understand the process of the loan assumption program. Also how long does it take and what documents are they going to ask for.
Hi Kimmhall!

Welcome to forums!

If your husband assumes the loan in his name, then he will become the sole owner of the mortgage and will be liable for paying it off. You won't be liable for the mortgage any further. If he is delinquent on the payments, it won't affect your credit situation.

In order to qualify for a loan assumption, your husband should have the required credit scores and financial stability.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Welcome Kimmhall,

Not all loans qualify for assumption. You should chek out the mortgage doc in order to find out whether or not the assumption clause is mentioned in it. If yes, then you may ask your husband to assume the loan.
