What is an assumption?
An assumption is the process of a borrower transferring their property ownership to someone else. There are two different
types of assumptions, simple and qualifying. The transaction you are trying to accomplish determines which type of
assumption is applicable to your loan. Also, your Deed of Trust may prohibit a qualifying assumption.
A simple assumption is a transfer of mortgaged property from one or more persons to another. It is called "simple"
because this type of an assumption requires the signing of only a few documents to transfer "ownership" of the property
to someone else. An example of a simple assumption is the death or divorce of a co-borrower where the borrower wants
the co-borrowers name removed from the loan. In the case of a simple assumption, the "liability" of the mortgage
debt is not transferred. The remaining borrower is still responsible for repaying the balance of the loan.
A qualifying assumption involves the sale of the property and requires the buyer to qualify for the mortgage, just like
if they were applying for a new loan. A qualifying assumption transfers ownership and the "liability" for the repayment
of the loan to the buyer of the property. Most loans today, if assumable, are qualifying assumptions.

Mortgage Qualification Guidlines
Lenders carefully scrutinize your qualifications in order to ascertain how much the maximum amount of money you could afford to pay them every month. They do so by plugging your information into certain formulas that give fairly accurate predictions. Should these predictions prove that you can afford to pay the monthly dues that will be stipulated by the loan, you are most likely to be granted the mortgage loan.

Mortgage Qualification Guidlines
1.For income from a second job to be considered as part of your qualifying income, you have to have a long history of at least two years receiving that second income as part of your toal earnings.
2. If you have been receiving income through child support, you should have been receiving income consistently. You would be required to submit a history of the payments made for the child support. Usually, if your child support status has just been awarded recently, it might not be considered as a qualifying source of income.
3. It is not advisable to apply for a mortgage loan while being involved in a lawsuit or any legal matter. You should prospone your application until that legal matter is settled and resolved before you could apply for a mortgage loan.
