I have been living with someone for 8 years. we are both on social security as our only sources of income. I owe $50,000 credit card debt from 1996 when I was married. I could not pay and my ex would not pay.
Now I am inheriting $30,000 and my live in friend and I want to buy a house, we are elderly. I will give him the money and he will take a30 year mortgage, I can not be on the house as the collection agencies would take the house away.
If he leaves me the house in his will, with a mortgage on it, can I just take over payments with my social security check or will I have to qualify and take out a new mortgage on what is owed. I could never get a loan as I owe so much money. Would they just throw me out in the cold? How can we arrange doing this with a house and have me keep living there if he dies?
