Transferring mortgage and deed - Free up debt to purchase/cosign

Transferring mortgage and deed - Free up debt to purchase/cosign

Hello,

I have a mortgage in my name and have tenants in that condo, where I collect rent. I currently live in a home that does not have my name on the mortgage. I am looking to free up my debt from the mortgage where my tenants are to possibly buy and/or cosign a home for my sister. She has a mortgage in her name where tenants live and she currently lives in a place and pays rent. I am unsure she will qualify to borrow more due to the current mortgage.  With that said, I was wondering if I would be able to transfer my mortgage that is in my name, to my father, who does not have a mortgage in his name. Maybe this would free up my debt and since my salary is higher than my fathers, I can be leveraged to buy and or cosign for my sister, without that debt in may name anymore...

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Michael

    @Michael Orlando No, it is not possible to “transfer a mortgage” into another’s name. The only exception would be if your father Bought your property and you had an assumable fha or va loan, And he Qualified for the mtg. 

    Much simpler, just talk to Mtg broker, they’ll tell you where you stand, or better yet your sister.
