Don’t let this opportunity “Wither” away! Witherspoon Court is a hidden gem amongst the hustle and bustle that can sometimes be Washington Township. This quiet cul de sac is home to just two properties, and it feels so exclusive! This lovely home sits on just about a quarter of an acre, and has so much to offer. The traditional floor plan guides you into the home with the formal living room on the left of the staircase. The living room is open to the dining room, currently being used as a home office. The kitchen is equipped with newer stainless steel appliances, and an eat-in area that can be used for dining or adding more storage if you see fit. There is a second living room two steps down from the kitchen, and off of this room is the powder room, laundry room and access to the garage. The backyard can be accessed from this living room. The large deck provides many options for playing, relaxing, grilling& chilling, while the fenced in yard provides a safe place to play and have fun. Head back inside to the second floor and you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, the primary having a large walk in closet and access to the full (shared) bathroom that you can access from the hallway as well. Head back downstairs into the partially finished basement - so much potential is in store here! Leave one side partially finished, or finish it more yourself, and the rest is already set up perfectly for storage, with a crawlspace to boot! There is exterior access to the side of the property through the basement as well, which brings in more natural light than your typical basement. Some highlights of the home include a newer HVAC system (2025) and newer hot water heater (2025), a secluded cul de sac location, centrally situated within Washington Township so very close to all major roads, delicious restaurants, shopping, and more!
Roam is your trusted partner for affordable home ownership. We help manage the assumption process from start to finish, enabling homebuyers to easily purchase their next home with a low-interest rate mortgage attached.
To qualify, you must meet the current FHA, VA, or USDA loan requirements depending on the type of loan you are assuming. This typically means a minimum credit score of 580, although most lenders prefer 620-640. Your debt-to-income ratio should be under the 50% max under FHA guidelines. Additional information such as employment history, explanations of income for each applicant, and asset verification for a down payment may be needed to process the loan.
An assumable mortgage is a type of home loan that allows a homebuyer to take over the existing mortgage terms from the seller, with no cost to the seller. Many government-backed loans, such as FHA and VA loans, are eligible for assumption, and millions of these mortgages are available.
When interest rates on mortgages are high, assuming a mortgage with a rate as low as 2% allows buyers to save up to thousands monthly compared to buying a home with a traditional mortgage at today’s average rates of 7%. A low-rate assumable mortgage could be the key to finding your dream home at an affordable price.

When assuming the existing mortgage as part of a home purchase, the buyer has to cover the seller’s equity in the home. The seller’s equity is the purchase price minus the remaining mortgage balance. This amount must be covered in full through an all-cash down payment or by taking out a second mortgage.
Yes. Non-veterans can assume a VA loan, provided they meet the lender’s VA criteria. When a qualified buyer assumes a VA mortgage from a veteran or active-duty service member, the seller’s VA loan entitlement remains tied to the assumed loan until the buyer pays off or refinances the loan. This process restores the veteran seller’s entitlement, enabling them to use their VA benefit for a future home purchase.
Yes. All FHA loans are assumable by law as long as the buyer meets the FHA’s credit, income, and qualification requirements and obtain lender approval before assuming the loan (per FHA regulations effected December 15, 1989). Roam makes this process simple for buyers.
Generally, conventional loans are not assumable. In rare cases, a conventional loan may be assumable with lender approval. Use our search tool to find homes with assumable low-rate loans, or reach out to us if you’d like to confirm a specific home’s assumability.
