The main level offers a seamless flow from room to room, starting with a gourmet kitchen featuring crisp white cabinetry, new sleek granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (including a brand‑new stove), and a cozy dining area with an updated light fixture. Just beyond the kitchen and dining area is a spacious family room with easy access to the fully fenced‑in backyard.

The primary suite is a true retreat with two large windows that fill the room with light, a ceiling fan, a sliding mirror closet door with built‑in organizers, and plenty of closet space. The beautifully updated bathroom shines with a sleek gray vanity topped with marble, ceramic tile flooring, and a deep tub/shower with crisp, classic subway tile and spa shower-head. Tucked away beyond the bathroom is a laundry area with a full‑size washer and dryer for added convenience. The second bedroom is equally spacious, located toward the back of the home, and features a ceiling fan and a full wall of closet space complete with built‑in organizers. Newington Heights is a convenient location that offers easy access to nearby shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences, as well as seamless commuting options via the Lorton VRE Station, Franconia‑Springfield Metro, Fairfax County Parkway, I‑395, I‑495, I‑95, NGA, and Fort Belvoir.

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.
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.
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.
Roam has compiled available listings with low-rate assumable mortgages for you to browse. To get started, enter the city, state, zip code, or school district you’re interested in purchasing in. Utilize the search filters to narrow down your search. Click “Save search” to save your search preferences and activate listing notifications—we’ll email you as soon as new listings match your criteria.
Once you’ve found your dream home and ready to make an offer, schedule a call with a Roam Advisor directly from the listing. Your Roam Advisor will guide you through each step of the process, while also working directly with your agent, the servicer, and the seller to ensure you close on time.
