What assuming an FHA loan involves

FHA loans originated after 1986 are assumable with the servicer's approval. The buyer goes through a creditworthiness review against current FHA guidelines, including credit score and debt-to-income limits.

The buyer takes over the remaining balance at the original rate, and the gap between the price and that balance is covered with cash or secondary financing. FHA mortgage insurance continues for the life of the loan on most loans originated after 2013, so the monthly cost includes that premium.

FHA rules generally require the buyer to occupy the home as a primary residence. The seller is released from liability once the servicer completes the assumption and issues a release.
