Second Mortgage vs Refinance?

Posted on: November 17, 2020

If borrowers need urgent funds against their home equity, they have options either to refinance or to get a 2nd mortgage. If they break their mortgage in the middle of the mortgage term, then they must go through the hefty penalty charges. Refinance also includes legal fee, registration fee, and mortgage prepayment penalty. If borrowers want to avoid those extra costs, then they have another option that is a Second Mortgage.

How much can you borrow on your home equity?
For example, your home is valued at $500,000 and your first mortgage is $250, 000. How much amount you can take out? You can get 80% of home value minus your first mortgage ($500,000*80% – $250,000= $150,000). Based on this example, you can take out $150,000 from your equity for both Refinance and Second Mortgage options.

Along with that, before taking out a second mortgage or refinancing your mortgage, you must ask yourself a couple of questions: do I have a good credit score? Do I have a stable source of income to pay off the hefty penalty or If I have bad credit history or unstable income, then what options I am left with? The answers to these questions will help you to decide which option is suitable towards your situation.

To continue with, if borrowers have low beacon score and their income source is also unstable, consequently, they cannot be qualified from traditional lenders. In this situation, what borrowers can do?
