Paying my Dads mortgage.?
My Dad bought a house 2 years ago and I've made all the mortgage payments since. He has never lived in the home. I'm wondering if everything he is doing is legal? Or is this considered mortgage fraud.

You left out some details? Are you living in the home? Is It a VA loan. Is it a rental property? Did he intend on living there and them due to health issues was not able to occupy? Majority of the time -- the mortgage holder only cares that the monthly payment is made -- and not who makes it.

How long does mortgage pre-approval last?
We're pre-approved for a mortgage. We looked for houses in the Fall, but nothing worked out. We want to search again in the spring. Do we need to get pre-approved again?

Can I buy a house and have someone else pay the mortgage?
I'm thinking of buying a house for an aging parent. If I put the loan in my name, could my parent pay the monthly mortgage or a portion of the income? I want to help my parent, but I don't want it to appear as income on my taxes or be penalized for trying to help.
