There are two major options for 2nd mortgage loans. The first is a Home Equity Loan, which is the traditional second mortgage and involves getting a fixed sum of money. The second option is a Home Equity Line of Credit and instead of a fixed sum of money, you get a credit line with a fixed limit.

What is subordinate second mortgage?

Deeds of Trust (mortgages) have a position on title based on seniority (1st, 2nd, 3rd). So if a new 1st mortgage wants to go into first position in a refinance transaction but there is already a 2nd mortgage, they must ask the 2nd mortgage to allow them to go ahead of them on title. The 2nd mortgage lender will review the proposed loan, and either approve or deny the request. This is most common when a borrower wants to retain the terms of the 2nd mortgage or they do not have enough equity to borrow a sufficient amount in the new loan to pay off the 2nd mortgage.


Can you use a second mortgage as a down payment?

It depends....the 2nd mortgage holder can buy out your first mortgage and then foreclose on the entire property , the chances are higher of this happening is the 2nd mortgage is kinda large or if they are held by the same lender. If the 2nd mortgage holder decides not to buy the first mortgage out then typically nothing with happen because the first mortgage holder is in control.
