I bought a home with a girl I am no longer seeing. She asked me to move out and I told her I could not afford rent and the morgage. She said her mom would help and not to worry about it. Later I signed papers to get my name off the deed for the house. My name is still on the mortgage. Is there anything I can do beyond her refinancing the house in her own name to fix this? I need out of this situation and I don’t no what to do

Housing mortgage bailout? How will it effect responsible home owners?

Are the interest rates going to go up or down? Is this a good time to try and refinance for a better rate? We have owned our home for about 8 years and never been late on a payment. We are responsible home owners. Will this whole thing make the value of our house decline?

I’m going to avoid PMI, closing costs, and get a really low interest rate of around 3-4%. Is there any downside to having him do this for me???
This would be a fixed rate. Not an arm or variable.

todd c asked:


Hi we thought we would be living here for ever, so last year we were approached by someone telling us our home was valued at 300k. we decided to refinance with this assumption they even had a apprasier come out and evaluate the property. At that time we owed 240k on the home and used the excess to pay medical bills. We bought the home for 250k two years ago. Now we have to move, we want to get closer to my wifes parents, and a appraised value is now at 250k. so we are short of 50k…………, someone told me it was illegal of them to appraise my property at 300k last year is that true, i told me realitor that situation he told me the property should have never been valued that high.

I have approx. 10 years experience processing loans and I just had a baby so it would be easier for me to work from home.

Does it make sense to rent a home if the rent won’t cover the mortgage?

louisebova asked:


I will most likely have to pay $200 or more to cover the mortgage every month. Does it pay to hold onto the house until the market gets better and I could sell it without losing money?

We live in New York State. The other issue is that I took money out of my IRA to pay the down payment and closing costs. Does that mean I need to claim it to not get penalized? Any help would be great!

Which home mortgage should I pay off first, mine or my deceased father’s?

Schell asked:


My wife and I (filing jointly) have a home mortgage with about a $140,000 balance. Since my father died in October, we’ve been covering the mortgage payments on his home, which we are trying to sell, though the market is soft now. Dad’s home mortgage is about $185,000, and the interest portion of the monthly payment is about $1,000 compared to $800 for our home mortgage. The liquid portion of Dad’s inheritance is enough to pay off one, but not both, of the mortgages. Which should we pay off first?
