You cannot simply "Transfer" a loan over to a family member.. Doing so would trigger the "Due on Sale" clause in your agreement. The assumable with No-Qualifying mortgage was last done in 1988.. since then, most government loans are assumable With Qualifying.. and for qualifying purposes, it's no different then if they went and bought a home.. they would still need to meet all eligibility requirements.. You can however ADD them to your deed.. For most all lenders out there, this will not be a trigger. (contact your loan servicer to be sure before doing this).. However, if you deed the property to your daughter, and you remove yourself.. then that will cause a trigger.. so you can add someone to the deed, so long as you don't remove anyone.. you should be ok.. Otherwise, they could buy the property from you for the outstanding balance, and you would be giving them a gift of equity.. this is allowed for "arms length" transactions..
