What is the name of your state? TX.
I am about to purchase a second home that I think will appreciate greatly in the future. I want to get this house for my son, who is not in a financial position to buy a house of this value (no credit, no job, in graduate school). I do not want him to undertake a mortgage, even if I am a co-signer. Is it possible for me to be the sole person financially responsible for the mortgage payments but the house to be in his name? I apologize if this is a silly question but I have never encountered such a situation before, It was always my thought that the mortgage obligor will always be the same as the "owner" on the deed. Thanks!
