TRUTH!!

I used to do real estate closings, and if a person is on the loan or responsible in any way and the other party defaults, it will all fall on the original person. Unless you are married to or somehow related to a person that would justify this trust (parent/child, etc) I would never suggest co-signing. By doing so, you are giving someone the option to just walk away from it if they decided they didnt want to deal. If you have a set in stone, legal binding contract for a rent or lease to purchase agreement, this might work, as it operates mostly like a rental. Your mortgage gets paid, and they have the option to buy or lose their already paid "down payment", in which case you still got the mortgage paid and can find another buyer if needed. |
