Please note that the rates listed in the survey are

use the survey to reach out to the various lenders,

want to contact some local banks and credit unions.
When
people go out shopping for a second mortgage they
typically look at either a variable rate home
equity line of credit or a fixed rate second mortgage.
With a home equity line you may get the benefits of
only paying interest on the amount you owe each month
and introductory rates that can be very appealing
when the corresponding index is nice and low. The
downside is that when the index goes up, so does your
rate and your monthly payment. Many consumers feel
more comfortable with the security that a fixed rate
2nd mortgage provides. Fixed rate second mortgage
loan products come in all shapes and sizes. These
products range anywhere from a 5 year balloon program
up to a thirty year fixed rate second. Rates, programs,
and terms will vary by lender. Please contact the
mortgage companies listed on forthebestrate.com directly
to learn more about their second mortgage offerings.
