Second Mortgages
The greatest thing about second mortgages - and at the same time the most dangerous aspect of these loans - is their self determination. You have complete control. Its up to you to signal the need for these mortgages, and its up to you to use the money in a financially effective manner. Its free range finances down at the home equity loan corral, so you have to be the one to give your mortgage a little spine.
Back up second mortgages with good looks and a killer tan!
You've got to put yoru best financial face forward when you apply for second mortgages. You've got to let your lender know you are serious about this loan, and that you know what you are doing:
- come into negotiations with a plan of how you will spend every dime of your second mortgages - and how you will come up with a complete repayment. Lenders love dependability.
- Enter your negotiations knowing your complete list fo financial strengths. Emphasize your steady monthly payments and the huge amount of equity your really have, then let them know you have the strength to back up your paltry 2nd mortgages.
While home equity loans are anything but paltry and small, making your lender believe they are, making them believe you can easily handle this secondary mortgage obligation, will result in lower interest rates and more flexible terms on your equity financing.
Beat around the bush!
Even if you don't plan on using your second mortgages for dependable, valid financial reasons, make everyone think that you are. Once the money is yours you can do with it whatever you please, but in the meantime:
- say that the money from your second mortgages will go to consolidating your outside debts
- point to your home and scream Shes falling apart! and lament the need for home improvements
- distract your lender with outside, sure-shot financial investments that will generate returns and they will lend you their money - your home equity - with minimal fuss and minimal fees.
Don't drop your guard, and if you can beat around the bush to save a few percentage points on your loan interest- do it.
