About this home
VA Assumable — Open to Non-Veterans! Welcome to 74 E St — a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-story home on an exceptionally large 9,200+ sq ft lot in the heart of Chula Vista. Built in 1951, this 1,314 sq ft home offers more than just a place to live — it offers a rare opportunity to create something extraordinary. Step inside and you'll find a spacious layout with abundant natural light and generously sized bedrooms. While the interior may need a few weeks of TLC and updates, the true value lies outside — where years of love and care have transformed the grounds into a lush, private retreat. Imagine the possibilities: harvesting your own grapes, lemons, peaches, calamansi, guava, and more from mature, fruit-bearing trees. Picture colorful flowers welcoming you at the front entry, and a backyard so expansive it invites dreams — whether that’s building an ADU, creating a vibrant garden oasis, or designing an entertainer’s paradise. This is not just another home — it’s a chance to invest in space, freedom, and long-term potential in one of Chula Vista’s most established neighborhoods. Includes a detached 2-car garage, generous driveway parking, and unbeatable access to schools, parks, dining, I-5, and downtown Chula Vista. No HOA. No Mello-Roos. Properties like this — with land, location, and limitless upside — don’t come around often.

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.

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.
