An assumption agreement, sometimes called an assignment and assumption agreement, is a legal document that allows one party to transfer rights and/or obligations to another party. It allows one party to "assume" the rights and responsibilities of the other party.

An assumable mortgage is a home loan that can be transferred from the original borrower to the next homeowner. The interest rate and payment period stay the same. For example, if a 30-year mortgage is three years old, the person assuming the loan has 27 years to pay it off.
