Can You Be On The Deed Of A Home, If You’re Not On The Mortgage? Yes, you can be on the title or deed of the home as an owner without being on the mortgage. The person who has the mortgage is also an owner of the home. You are co-owners, but not co-borrowers.

Homeowners Are Staying Longer... A decade ago, I could expect homeowners to move every 5 to 7 years. Today it’s 8 to 10 years. That’s one reason for the tight housing market. When an owner finally does decide to sell, the longer they’ve been in the house, the harder it can be to see their home as a commodity. A side effect of a long residency is lack of price perception. You may attach more (or less) value to your home than the market will bear. Rather than ‘going by our guts’ in pricing your home, we can interpret market data together to find the right price to get the highest offers. After 10+ years, you could be “house blind” to your own furnishings, unaware of what helps or hinders the value of your home at first sight. I’ll help you prioritize what needs to be done. There’s more to do. I understand you need time and help with resources to prepare your home and get moved. You don’t have to do it alone. I’ve got a long list of service providers and will refer you to the right people, some of whom will take payment after selling. Leveling Off... The trend towards rising prices is already leveling off in some areas. However, interest rates are still low and buyers are still buying, so now might be your best chance to make the highest profit ever on your home. Let me know you’re interested in selling. Contact me for a no-obligation consultation.

There are important implications. The lender who provided the mortgage has a first position lien on the property. If something happens to the borrower, the mortgage company has the right to request payoff of the mortgage. The owner on title may now need to sell the house to satisfy the loan payoff, or be able to qualify to get a new loan to cover the value of the remaining loan amount. This kind of problem occurs in a variety of situations. For instance, if parents put their adult children on the deed to a home as a method of handling inheritance, but the kids are not able to satisfy the loan requirements if the parents pass away or become incapacitated. Let me know if you have other questions.

What’s The Difference Between A Craftsman And A Cottage? A cottage is any small home with “quaint” features, like a cozy breakfast nook, built-ins, a simple interior, and a rustic feel. It can be any architectural style, like Craftsman, Cape Cod, farm house, barn, Normandy, etc. Many converted garages are called cottages. The confusion is that Craftsman style homes also have quaint, cottage-like features. However, Craftsman design has characteristics that define it specifically as a Craftsman home. Some of the cutest cottages are small Craftsmans, combining the earthy elements of the Craftsman style with the cozy quaintness of a cottage.
