A second mortgage, or a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), can be a valuable tool for homeowners. However, it’s important to understand the different types of second mortgages and their associated rates.
Second Mortgages Originated at Purchase
If you're obtaining a second mortgage at the same time as your primary mortgage, the interest rate is often fixed and determined by various factors, including your credit score, down payment, and the overall loan-to-value (LTV) ratio.
Second Mortgages Originated Later (HELOCs)
The interest rate on a HELOC, on the other hand, is often tied to a benchmark rate like the prime rate, plus a margin set by the lender.
