Second Charge Mortgage Calculator
What is a second charge mortgage?
A second charge mortgage is a type of loan that is secured against your home, and the capital raised through the homeowner loan can be used for almost all purposes. The reason it is possible to have both a first and second charge mortgage is because the second charge loan can be secured against the portion of equity that you own in your property; whilst still paying off your existing first charge mortgage.
This does however mean that failure to keep up with your repayments in either of these commitments could result in your home being repossessed.The ‘first charge’ and ‘second charge’ refers to the repayment priority that each financial product has. So if our home was repossessed, the capital raised through the property sale would have to be used to repay the first charge lender first, then anything left over would be used to repay the second charge lender up to the debt amount.
How do I get a second charge mortgage?
Different lenders have different criteria but some general rules of thumb are:
-
You need to have an existing mortgage in place
-
You will need sufficient equity in your property - typically a second charge lender will not lend based on the loan you are looking for over 90% LTV taking into account the existing first mortgage.
-
Your credit history will be a factor. Lenders take different views on previous credit blips so talk to us for further information
-
Location - where you live in the UK may determine whether you can raise finance on a second charge basis
