Great blog post Sarah! This is a great explanation of assumable mortgages. The most common misconception I hear is that many people don’t realize that they still have to qualify when they assume a mortgage. In fact, I received a call just yesterday with the same question. The woman I spoke with thought that because she had poor credit she should just assume a mortgage so she wouldn’t need to qualify or have a down payment. I had to explain that was incorrect. In order to assume a mortgage you must still qualify! Thank you very much for clarifying this commonly confused topic.

John,
Thanks for blogging aboout this issue, as soon as the real estate market slows down these types of scenarios start to creep up. I am asked about this all the time! Thanks for saying it like it is and discouraging this type of behavior. Many people don’t know that it’s fraud, they just think it sounds like a good idea!

Comment on St. Albert Real Estate Infill – Gazette Article by Fred Trotter

Fred Trotter — Sun, 09 May 2010 17:03:21 +0000

We’ve noticed approximately 13 properties that are currently identified as “PS” or public and private on the 2009 land use map for St. Albert. Right now, these properties are either single empty lots or attached to parks and/or nearby school sites. No doubt, these properties are being touted as “green space” by their realtors.

When people are buying a home, one of the considerations is location. Allowing the HfH/Apollo Development to “poo poo” the objections of residents in Akinsdale and causing the city to change bylaws to incorporate their “vision” sets a lovely precedent for anyone who is looking for a home near these properties.

So, when you buy a home that backs onto any of these PS properties, be prepared to lose anywhere from 6 to 9% of your value, should you ever choose to sell your castle.

If we had known that HfH stood for stepping on the rights of others, we would never have considered supporting them.

Comment on 2010 Housing Forecast Seminar by Danielle Millar

Danielle Millar — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 23:22:57 +0000

This positive outlook is really good to hear.
As you point out all property buyers should enjoy the low rates now but use the savings on mortgage payments now to buffer their accounts for later.

The last thing you want is to be cash constricted by increasing mortgage rates.

Thanks for the report on the seminar I wish I could have gone! Danielle
