<prompt> Human: My parents currently live with my brother in a condo owned by my parents, paid off.They are looking to purchase an affordable housing unit using my brothers name because he is a first-time homeowner. The plan is to sell the old condo to pay off the new one - it is probably equivalent in market prices because my parents bought it before the real estate bubble.The problem is my brother doesnt have enough income to be approved for a mortgage he makes 30k, so parents wanted me to cosign the mortgage. I live out of state so I cant be on the title. I wont have to pay the down payment, I think that will come from either my brother or family. They just need my name on the mortgage.So...what could go wrong for me?  <response>: You could end up paying for the entire condo while having your credit ruined and not owning the condo.You could decide to buy real estate for yourself any time in the next 30 years and realize that no one will lend to you since you already have a mortgage.
