Can you sell a home with a HE lien

Posted on: 01st Jun, 2009 12:32 am
i have an old home that i would like to sell--to a rehabber--in the near future, but i have a home equity loan that i am still paying on. i was told when i applied that i would be able to sell it, but i don't understand how that works.
how does this transactiion work with the bank holding the lien in order to be able to sell my home? how does it work exactly since i am new to these types of situations?
hi maryrita_kizior

though the bank is holding a lien on the property, you can still sell it off. while you sell off the property, the buyer will have to assume the loan or refinance it in his name.

thanks.

Thanks. I was really concerned about it because I am going to need to sell my house within a year.
