Homes With 2%–4% Mortgages

Some San Diego homes may have assumable mortgages far below today's typical rates. The right loan could potentially save hundreds—or even thousands—of dollars in payments.

These homes are not always easy to identify in a normal home search.

Ask George for the Low-Rate Mortgage List

Find an Unlisted or Off-Market Home

The home you want may never show up in the normal MLS search. I can help look for owners who may consider selling before they publicly list.

Find Off-Market & Unlisted Homes

Which Sellers May Be Ready to Deal?

I look for clues that a seller may be more flexible:

  • Recent price reductions
  • Back on the market
  • Failed escrows
  • Longer market times
  • Vacant or overlooked homes
