The average estimated assumable rate on active listings is 4.51%. The lowest available is 1.75%. These figures come from listing data and are estimates; the lender determines final terms.
The average assumable rate on active listings is roughly 2.2 percentage points below the current 30-year fixed average of 6.71% (Freddie Mac, September 3, 2026). On a $400,000 loan that gap is about $555 per month in estimated principal and interest.
The estimated average downpayment across assumable listings is $180,973. It is the gap between the sale price and the remaining loan balance, so it varies widely by listing. Some buyers finance part of the gap with a second loan.
FHA, VA, and USDA loans are assumable. Most conventional loans are not. They carry a due-on-sale clause that requires the loan to be paid off when the home sells.
Assumptions typically take 60 to 120 days through the seller’s servicer. Roots coordinates the process and averages around 43 days on assumption closings.
