How assumptions work for buyers

Cosby, Tennessee has 5 homes for sale with an assumable mortgage as of October 2026: 3 FHA loans and 2 VA loans that a qualified buyer can take over at the seller's existing rate instead of financing at today's roughly 7.2%. Rates on active Cosby assumable listings start at 3.50% with a median of 5.66%; 1 listing is under 4% and 2 are under 5%.

The median assumable home in Cosby lists for $325,000, with a median of $138,111 in cash to assume, the gap between the price and the remaining loan balance. At the median assumable rate the principal-and-interest payment is about $782 a month versus $948 for the same balance at today's rate, roughly $166 kept every month and $1,993 a year. The most active Cosby ZIP codes are 37722 (5).

UMe confirms the balance, rate, and assumability of each listing with the listing agent before marking it Certified. FHA, VA, and USDA loans are assumable by law, and you do not need to be a veteran to assume a VA loan. Once you are under contract, the loan servicer underwrites you rather than a new lender; most Cosby assumptions close in 45 to 90 days, and UMe tracks the file with the servicer and both agents so nothing stalls.

How it works in Cosby

How to assumea mortgage in Cosby.

You’re not applying for a new mortgage. You’re stepping into one that already exists, at the rate it was written. Four steps, and UMe owns the hard one.

Start with pre-qualification
  1. 01

    Find a Cosby home with a locked rate.

    Every listing on this page carries an existing FHA, VA, or USDA loan. Filter the Cosby map by existing rate, monthly payment, or cash to assume instead of by list price alone.

  2. 02

    Cover the seller’s equity.

    You pay the seller the difference between the price and the remaining balance, a median of $138,111 in Cosby today. Cash, a second loan, or seller financing can bridge it.

  3. 03

    Qualify with the servicer, not a new lender.

    The current loan servicer reviews your credit, income, and debt just like a lender would. UMe prepares the file, works the servicer directly, and chases every follow-up so the 45-to-90-day timeline holds.

  4. 04

    Close and keep the rate.

    The seller’s balance, rate, and remaining term become yours. No points, no origination fee, no reset to 30 years, and a Cosby payment written in a different decade.

All assumption FAQs

How many assumable homes are for sale in Cosby?

As of October 2026, UMe tracks 5 active assumable listings in Cosby. Inventory refreshes from the MLS throughout the day, so the map may show slightly different counts.

What types of assumable loans are available in Cosby?

Current Cosby inventory breaks down as FHA (3, median 4.30%) and VA (2, median 6.67%). FHA, VA, and USDA mortgages are assumable by law, which is why they make up nearly all assumable listings. Conventional loans usually carry a due-on-sale clause and cannot be assumed. You do not need to be a veteran to assume a VA loan, though the seller's entitlement stays tied up unless you substitute your own.

What is the lowest assumable mortgage rate in Cosby?

The lowest rate on an active Cosby assumable listing is 3.50%, and the median across all 5 listings is 5.66%. 1 listing is under 4% and 2 are under 5%, compared with roughly 7.2% for a new 30-year loan today.

How much can I save with a mortgage assumption in Cosby?

Across current Cosby listings, the median principal-and-interest payment on the assumable loan is $782 per month versus $948 for the same balance at today's rates, a difference of about $166 every month, or $1,993 a year. The savings compound because you also keep the seller's remaining term instead of restarting a 30-year clock.

How much money do I need to assume a home in Cosby?

When you assume a loan you pay the seller the difference between the list price and the remaining loan balance. In Cosby that gap is currently a median of $138,111 on a median list price of $325,000. Buyers cover it with cash, a second mortgage, or seller financing; UMe can connect you with lenders who write gap loans behind an assumption.

Which Cosby ZIP codes have the most assumable homes?

The Cosby ZIP codes with the most active assumable listings are 37722 (5). Use the map to draw your own boundary or filter by rate, payment, and down payment inside any of them.

How long does a mortgage assumption take in Cosby?

Most FHA and VA assumptions close in 45 to 90 days. The loan servicer, not a new lender, underwrites you, and servicer turnaround is the main variable. UMe tracks the file with the servicer and the listing agent so nothing stalls, and every listing shows whether the assumption has already been confirmed with the seller's side.
