Combination First and Second Mortgage

Advantages:

  • Cost effective down payment strategy
    Combine a first and second mortgage to bypass the added expense of
    private mortgage insurance (PMI) while making a down payment as low as
    5% of the purchase price
  • Lower interest rate
    Purchase a larger home with a smaller first mortgage, avoiding the
    higher interest rate of a “jumbo” first mortgage loan

  • Build equity faster
    The home equity loan (second mortgage) has a shorter term than a
    traditional first mortgage loan, allowing you to pay it off faster
  • Simplicity & savings
    One application process, one closing process, one set of closing costs
    equals a two-in one process, saving you time and possibly money

Best for:

  • First-time homebuyers with limited savings
  • Move-up buyers with high-yielding investments who would rather use a home equity loan for their down payment instead of liquidating their assets
  • People delaying the purchase of a home because they are expecting to use a future bonus, commission check or inheritance toward the down payment
