**A: you can't refinance since you have no loan to refinance.

You can go out and get a new mortgage (in your name only) to pay off the existing mortgage. At closing, your mother would sign the deed over to you.

Q: Is There A Law Stating That She Can Not Do This Or Something In The Fha Guidelins Stating Its Against The Law For The Bank To Do This ?

A: No; she can sell the house off as long as she pays off all the liens on it and as long as you come up with the dough.

If there is a due on sale clause in the loan, then when ma signs it over to someone else, the whole loan becomes due and payable.

This is a question of the Golden Rule: He who has the gold makes the rules.

So, stop wasting time on this forum and start talking to lenders.

I am sorry if you feel as though I am wasting time but I have been talking to lenders lots of them and I was writting in this form to try and see who was telling it to me straight and who was feeding me bull. Thank you for your advice.

Why don't you simply BUY the house, obtaining a purchase money mortgage for the remaining mortgage balance? Mom can "gift the equity" (if any) to you in a Gift Letter.

If the goal is for you to own the house, mom to NOT own it, and her mortgage obligation eliminated, BUYING is what should be done. I don't even get why you are talking "refinance" when you are a intended owner, not a current owner.

Besides which, there are many great mortgage deals for first time buyers that are NOT available for refis, so by telling lenders you want to "refinance" you are potentially SCR****G yourself out of some adventageous mortgage programs!
