Second and Third Mortgages


Second and Third Mortgages work well for people who have a fixed interest rate that is lower than the prevailing interest rate. However a fixed interest rate on a second mortgage may be lower than an adjustable rate on the original loan. Second and third mortgages help when seeking to guarantee a loan for a family member, home improvement projects or debt consolidation.Advantages include the fact that second mortgages may have better terms that traditional refinancing. Using a second mortgage can be a way to get around private market insurance. It may have higher interest, but cost less in the longer term.

Low Income/No Income

Stated Income is one type of low income loan. It means that the loan in unsecured and is based on credit on proof of income. A stated income product works well for someone who is self-employed or ineligible for other loan products. These loans may have somewhat higher interest rates.

Stated Income – B Lenders

This loan helps those who are tipped, on commission or self employed. It does require that taxes are filed up to date and that there are no CRA violations. Typically the loans offer 75% to 85% of the required funding. Stated Income B is still a stated income product and requires credit rather than proof of income. Like the regular stated income product, it may have a higher interest rate.

Home Equity Loan

The home equity loan uses the house as collateral for the loan. It is the difference between the appraised value of the home and what is owed on the home. Typically homeowners can borrow 75% – 85% of their equity. The loan is packaged like a line of credit and may be used when and how the homeowner chooses. The interest rate is the prevailing interest rate at the time the money is borrowed or used.Home equity loans are often used to pay of other loans, consolidate debt, pay college tuition, or make larger more expense home improvements. Depending on the equity, a home equity loan can quite sizable.
