What is a First Mortgage?
The term “first mortgage” leads one to understand that there could be other mortgages on a property. A homeowner could take out another mortgage, such as a second mortgage, while the original and first mortgage is still in effect. The second mortgage is money borrowed against home equity to fund other projects and expenditures. However, the second mortgage and any other subsequent mortgages that are taken out on the same property are subordinate to the first mortgage. This means that the first mortgage is paid before the secondary mortgages are paid in the event of default.
