DO YOU HAVE TO PAY OFF A 2ND MORTGAGE BEFORE YOU PAY OFF THE 1ST MORTGAGE IN A REFINANCE?

do you want to go for refinance? if that is the case, you can consolidate loans by refinance.

you are answerable for payment of both the loans

The interest rates on a second loan are higher to that of the first loan. This is primarily because if you default, you will be paying off the first loan prior to that of the second and as such there is a risk involved in offering second mortgages.

Hi karey,

You should keep on negotiating with your second mortgage lender and check out if he considers your loan modification request now. In case, he doesn't consider your request, then you may think of filing bankruptcy.

Thanks
