Getting A Second Mortgage

Do you want to access the equity in your home to pay off bills or take a vacation? If so, you may be in the market for a 2nd mortgage. Taking out a home equity loan or line of credit gives you access to cash at a low interest rate. Generally, the interest rate for such a loan is comparable to the interest rates on your first mortgage.



Are there lenders who will give out 2nd mortgages with bad credit? While some lenders will offer loans to people who have bad credit, the loan may come with a higher interest rate and may come with more fees as well. However, the interest rate on such a loan will still be less than what is charged for a personal loan or a credit card for those with poor credit.

If you want to take out another mortgage on your home, you should be prepared to pay for that right. Many lenders will require closing costs to be paid on the loan because your new loan is actually considered to be a new mortgage. Therefore, you have to close on the deal just like you would when you bought your house originally.
