The second mortgage is a mortgage encumbering (eg housing) and another mortgage previously taxed. Usually done by a smaller amount.
In some cases the remaining value of a home can ensure compliance with other obligations (other the mortgage), but in case of default the secured creditor has a preference with the first mortgage. This would hypothetically and in practice to achieve a mortgage extension close to 100% of the floor.
Usually the most popular mortgage loans are those which provide up to 80% of property value, though these loans are beneficial interest many people can not access a first home because they subtract the 20% that the bank can finance them. Persons applying for a second mortgage are within this group of people, ie who do not have another percentage and are in the need to request a “small” mortgage on a par with the previous one.
There are different ways to a second mortgage, very similar and susceptible to confusion, such is the case of a rehipoteca, which consists of expanding the mortgage loan principal owed and in turn it also extends the repayment period, to that the monthly payments do not increase too much. The negative point is that by increasing the repayment period also increases the time interest is paid.
