<prompt> Human: My father wants me to co sign a loan so he can be able to buy a house. Hes approved for 600k. But since i have better credit he can get 900k. He wants a bigger house to be able to rent out as well. Im 30 and plan to buy my own home in the future in about 5 years. Im trying to do my research but unable to find the key words to point me in the right direction to get more info. Hoping you guys can help me. I just dont want this to hurt me in the future. He can make the payments, has his own restaurant. Just doesnt qualify for a bigger loan without me since his credit was ruined during him and my moms divorce.What should be my concerns?Can i get out of this in the future without it affecting me buying a house for myself?How can i get liability exclusion?What other questions should i ask?Thanks in advanced.  <response>: Do not do this. If any unforeseen reason prevents him from meeting his financial obligations, you will held equally responsible for the debt. It would be a loan with your name on it. Its your responsibility. And it will count against your debt to income ratio. This will impact you negatively if you need a loan for yourself. DO NOT DO THIS!- my 2 cents
