What is a Second Home Loan?
Similar to a loan you might have used to purchase your home, a 2nd home mortgage is a loan that uses your current home as collateral. Second home loans tap into the equity in your current home, which you may have built up with monthly payments or market value increases.
Second Home Loan Benefits
-
Loan Amount
Because the loan is secured against your current home, a second home loan allows you to borrow a large amount of money with up to 80% of your home’s value.
-
Interest Rates
Second home loans often have lower interest rates than other types of debt, because you are securing the loan with your current home which helps reduce risk for a lender.
-
Tax Benefits
A benefit that’s often overlooked is tax breaks. You might be able to qualify for a deduction for interest paid on a second home loan with a mortgage interest deduction.
