About this home
Welcome home to a property full of potential and packed with major updates — all at a price that leaves room to make it your own! This spacious home offers peace of mind with big-ticket improvements already completed, including a brand-new roof, new gas hot water heater, new garage door (no windows for added privacy), and a 2024 downstairs HVAC unit. Inside, the kitchen shines with a new refrigerator, brand-new stove and microwave with hood vent (never used!), a like-new dishwasher, new garbage disposal, and a new kitchen faucet. French doors with built-in blinds lead out to the rear deck, where the decking has been replaced and freshly painted, and the dying tree and stump have been removed to open up the backyard. Additional updates include new faux wood blinds in several rooms, and fresh paint in the dining room, upstairs hall bath, and large upstairs bedroom. The kitchen and downstairs bath have been repainted to their original colors. The front landscaping features 3-year-old shrubs and refreshed beds, while the back wood line has been cleared for a more open yard. While the carpet and interior paint could still use refreshing, this home is PRICED ACCORDINGLY, giving the next owner the perfect opportunity to add their personal touch while enjoying the benefit of so many recent improvements already in place. Disclaimer: CMLS has not reviewed and, therefore, does not endorse vendors who may appear in listings.

FAQs
Roam is your trusted partner for affordable home ownership. We help manage the assumption process from start to finish, enabling homebuyers to easily purchase their next home with a low-interest rate mortgage attached.
To qualify, you must meet the current FHA, VA, or USDA loan requirements depending on the type of loan you are assuming. This typically means a minimum credit score of 580, although most lenders prefer 620-640. Your debt-to-income ratio should be under the 50% max under FHA guidelines. Additional information such as employment history, explanations of income for each applicant, and asset verification for a down payment may be needed to process the loan.
An assumable mortgage is a type of home loan that allows a homebuyer to take over the existing mortgage terms from the seller, with no cost to the seller. Many government-backed loans, such as FHA and VA loans, are eligible for assumption, and millions of these mortgages are available.
When interest rates on mortgages are high, assuming a mortgage with a rate as low as 2% allows buyers to save up to thousands monthly compared to buying a home with a traditional mortgage at today’s average rates of 7%. A low-rate assumable mortgage could be the key to finding your dream home at an affordable price.
Roam has compiled available listings with low-rate assumable mortgages for you to browse. To get started, enter the city, state, zip code, or school district you’re interested in purchasing in.

When assuming the existing mortgage as part of a home purchase, the buyer has to cover the seller’s equity in the home. The seller’s equity is the purchase price minus the remaining mortgage balance. This amount must be covered in full through an all-cash down payment or by taking out a second mortgage.
