A wraparound mortgage arrangement is being used in certain areas to make selling a home easier. The seller doesn't pay off their mortgage as part of the transaction. They keep paying it. The buyer takes the property subject to the mortgage. The seller takes back a mortgage from the buyer based on the difference between the selling price and the balance owed on the first mortgage. That type of transaction is not legal in every state and most mortgages have a "due on transfer" clause by which the lender can demand full payment in the case of any transfer of title.There is also serious risk for the buyer because if the former owner doesn't pay the mortgage the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure and the buyer will lose their interest in the property including any downpayment or cost of improvements, if any.A wraparound mortgage arrangement is being used in certain areas to make selling a home easier.
