How we calculate our data
- We track live for-sale homes that have assumable FHA/VA loans.
- We estimate a buyer’s monthly payment using the remaining loan balance and the actual assumable interest rate.
- We compare that to a new 30-year mortgage at today’s average rate to show monthly savings.
- Equity gap = purchase price – remaining loan balance (roughly the cash you’d need to bring or finance another way).
- Taxes/insurance vary by home, so we keep the comparison focused on the loan piece for apples-to-apples.
