What is a mortgage? How long is a typical mortgage? Identify the different types of mortgage on offer in the United Kingdom? If you cannot keep up with mortgage repayments what can happen?

A relative will be leaving me a house in their will. If there is a mortgage (home equity) on the house when they die, do I take over the mortgage? I intend on selling the house when it is left to me.

If you don’t mind my asking, I’m trying to figure out what a reasonable percent of my income is to be going towards a mortgage payment. My partner and I make around $6500 gross monthly, and I’m wondering what percent of that we could reasonably spend on a mortgage without getting in over our heads. We have no other debt, but have normal bills like utilities and car insurance. If you don’t mind could you please give me an idea of what you earn and what you put towards your mortgage? Or what percent of your gross income goes towards your mortgage payments?

Thanks so much!

My friend was selling his house and couldn’t make the mortgage payments while the house was on the market. He said the real estate agent/company would pay his mortgage while it was up for sale. Then when the house sold, they deducted it from the price of the sale. How is this done?
Also, if you don’t make any mortgage payments while the house is on the market can it go into foreclosure?

Wondering????


I know the mortgage industry is in a mess right now, but I am looking toward the future when we rebound. Wondering what requirments there are to become a mortgage broker in Ohio. I am looking to work this industry on the side, as I already have a full time sales job. Also what are the typical commisions paid to brokers for sub-prime, prime, and jumbo mortgage loans…is this split with the company you work for? I already work 100% commission, so that is not a problem. Any input on this career is greatly appreciated, ie the ups and downs.

I’m planning to relocate, but current owe a mortgage for $50k. I also have a bankruptcy on my record thats a couple of years old. I’d like to find new home in the state I choose to live in. Would I be able to get a second mortgage or refinance my current home in order to pay for a new one?

Getting ready to buy a house and just curious what people find comfortable. What is your mortgage payment (including taxes and insurance), and your household income, and are you comfortable with your mortgage?

Thanks!

I currently work in a distribution center, and i have a bachelors in economics and psychology. I am interested in becoming a mortgage loan officer so i took a 24 credit hour course in residential mortgage lending but unfortunately i haven’t been able to find a job because i do not have any mortgage or lending experience. What else should i do to achieve my carer goal?

I built a house in 2008 but have not been able to close on the home and secure a mortgage. The mortgage companies I have spoken with tell me that until my previous home is sold I will have to continue with a construction loan and a very high payment. Does anyone have any advice?
