I am planning to buy a house in collegeville and am planning to move there soon, I really want to move to this area as I have some of my good friends around and I like it because it has new houses am working with my employer to relocate me there. If I buy a house and take the mortgage on this house as primary residence and later if I am unable to move (if job does not allows) for 1-2 yrs and rent this house for that time. Would it be treated as investment property ? What will happen in that case do I pay any penalty ? I think I wud get a transfer if not now then in 6 mnths or 1 yr but want to have all the info before I move ahead

Hi Kevin! Collegeville is a GREAT place to purchase a home (it's where I've lived for the past 11 years:) Home sales there are steady and homes hold their values well -- even in this tougher market.

I'm a bit confused: are you saying that you're not sure if you'll be relocating to Collegeville yet? Not knowing the location to which you'll be relocating certainly makes your home search tougher:) (By the way, you can search 1000s of homes in and around the greater Collegeville area at http://www.CollegevilleAreaHomes.com.)

I don't know that you would be assessed a "penalty"; however, you must be careful to abide by the requirements/program documents associated with your loan. I would direct you to 2 mortgage guys I use all the time. They're both FABULOUS: John Quattrochhi with First American Mortgage (johnq@fammortgage.com; cell: (215) 630-9567); and Mike Storti with Mortgage Mobility (mike@mortgagemobility.com; cell: (610) 842-8212).

Feel free to call me direct at (610) 324-5240 if you have ANY questions about the Collegeville, PA area. I just LOVE it!!:)

Good luck and blessings to you.............

Warmly,
Judy

Hello, Kevin,

If you purchase a home with an "owner occupied" mortgage, then you are technically not supposed to use it as a rental property. If you are not planning to stay in your home for at least 3-5 years, you may be better off renting.

If you would like to find out about property values in that area, please go to http://www.carolworks4you.com and get a free market snapshot sent directly to your email.
