Second Mortgages
There are many different types of second mortgages available:
- A reverse mortgage is a line of credit available for homeowners of 62 years
and older. This type of loan allows you to draw money as you need or receive
monthly payments for the rest of your life or until you move, even if the
amount of your loan exceeds the value of your house (usually because the home
did not rise in value as expected or the homeowner lived longer than was expected).
This loan, like the home equity line of credit, has an adjustable rate, but
this rate is based on a different index, the Prime Rate which can often be
more reliable than other indexes.
- If you have little or no equity in your home, many lenders will still allow
you to obtain a second mortgage, but it can be risky to secure a loan with
your home if there is not enough equity accrued.

Home Equity
The reverse mortgage is also an adjustable rate mortgage, but is unique because the homeowner (who must be 62 years or older) is at no time obligated to make monthly payments on the loan. The amount of the equity on the home is made available to the owner in full, in monthly advances or as a line of credit, only to be repaid after the life of the owner through the sale of the home or by the family if they would like to keep the home.

Land Loan
For a land loan, the building company is expert on what kind of property can feasibly be built where. A good builder will provide all of the necessary tests of the land to ensure that it will past muster when put under the scrutiny of a lending institution. Often this added work involves soil sample testing and reviews of zoning laws that apply to the area. All types of qualifications must be met before a lending firm will back the loan.
