In life, we often encounter various unexpected events that may necessitate a sudden need for funds. If you find yourself in need of money for any reason but wish to avoid refinancing, a mortgage could be an excellent solution to obtain cash. By tapping into the equity of your home and subtracting the interest rate of your second mortgage from your first, you can utilize your home’s equity without affecting the interest rate of your first mortgage and without the need to refinance.

What is a Closed-End Second Mortgage?

A Closed-End Second Mortgage (CES Loan) is a type of second mortgage that allows you to leverage your home equity without affecting the interest rate of your first mortgage. Some second mortgages are “open-ended,” meaning you can continue to draw cash up to a maximum limit and then redraw upon repayment, similar to a line of credit. However, a “closed-end” second mortgage means you receive the entire loan amount in one lump sum and cannot draw any additional cash after receiving the loan.

Project Overview:
- Alternative income options.
- Flexible underwriting review.
- Permits all occupancy types.
- Allows borrowers to cash out without changing the interest rate of their first lien mortgage.
- Beneficial for debt consolidation, home renovations, and unexpected life events.

Why Choose a Closed-End Second Mortgage:
1. Quick Liquidity
This loan type enables homeowners to quickly access a significant lump sum of cash. The use of these funds is unrestricted—you can use them to pay off debts, fund further education, or undertake major home renovations without resorting to personal loans or other alternatives.
2. Fixed Interest Rates
If you opt for a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), you’re likely to get a variable interest rate. Closed-End Second Mortgages offer the option of a fixed interest rate, which might be ideal if you lock in when rates are low.
3. Lower Credit Score Requirement
We offer these loans to borrowers with FICO scores as low as 660, with maximum loan amounts up to $550,000 and a combined lien amount up to $2,500,000.
4. High Loan-to-Value Ratio
We offer a maximum LTV/CLTV of 75%-90%, with a maximum Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI) of 50%.
5.No Lender Fee
No fees for mortgage application, appraisal, underwriting, processing, private mortgage insurance and other third-party closing costs
6. Foreign Nationals May Apply
The program is not limited to U.S. citizens; non-permanent resident aliens and permanent resident foreigners are also eligible to apply, provided they have a U.S. credit history and a work permit.

In conclusion, Closed-End Second Mortgages provide homeowners with an effective way to utilize their home equity without the need for refinancing and without altering the interest rate of their primary mortgage. This type of loan’s flexibility is evident in its acceptance of various income and residency types and its requirement for a FICO score as low as 660, offering a quick cash route. Its fixed-rate option and a high LTV/CLTV ratio offer additional security and borrowing power to homeowners. Moreover, it’s accessible not only to U.S. citizens but also to qualified foreigners without the burden of additional lender fees, making it an ideal choice for managing debt consolidation, home improvements, or other financial necessities.
