In 2005 John Doe took out a mortgage for $246,000. In May 2007 I personally gave him a second mortgage for $30,000. In April 2008 his lender, in an effort to help him reduce his payment due to being 60 days behind reduced his rate from 8.25% to 4.75% and increased the first mortgage to $266,000 (the interest difference) without my concent or a subordination. Then in Oct. 2008 the lender filed LP for $266,887. His paymanet coupon also shows prin. balance of $266,000, however the modification was not filed in public records.
This morning out of curiosity, I called a trusted attorney to ask if this was allowed. Atleast in Florida, if a first mortgage without a future advance clause increases the first mortgage amount, the second becomes first lein holder... Look out. The property is about $180,000 in todays market. Wait until second mortgage holders across the country figure this out. Could this start a load of problems or what???? |

A first mortgagee can add fees, interest and other charges as per contract, to a Senior Lien without losing their lien priority. The lender can also adjust the terms and recast the loan without sacrificing lien priority. Sounds like you and they are SOL? Sorry!
