Bought my house about 7 months ago on a 100% financed mortgage with an unbelievably low interest rate, so I want to avoid refinancing. I don’t think i can do a home equity loan because I have little to no equity since i did the 100% finance. Any ideas? I need about 10000 – 15000 for new siding work.

Can I sell a home with just a 1st mortgage, collect the equity and continue to pay on my Heloc as if it is a line of credit? or will I have to include it in my home sale (and possibly a short sale)?

I am searching for financing to make home improvement repairs, I submitted a request for a home equity loan through lending tree. The lenders throwing out terms such as 1st mortgage, 2nd mortgage, and home equity loan.

My girlfriend and I got a house a year ago in Maryland. The loan is entirely in her name but the title of the house is in both our name. We are in over our head with this loan and with the state taxes for Maryland going up each year and thus the escrow we are finding it impossible to keep up. When we did a fair market analysis on the house using a local real estate agent we found in just 1 year we have negative ,000 equity in the house. My question is this, if the house goes through foreclosure will my credit be affected? What if we get married before the foreclosure? I’m worried if we get married at the wrong time and we lose the house it will be tied to my name as well. We are thinking if she loses the house maybe I can get one in just my name next year. Anyone knows if this will work? Thanks in advance…..
Some additional details that might help clarify our situation. The house loan is 0,000 or ,300 a month. My girlfriend makes 0 a month. Not nearly enough to pay the mortgage. The idea when we bought it was for me to pay the loan as she doesn’t make enough to pay it herself and with a baby coming we wanted a nice house to raise our son in. She got one of those shady deals where they gave her a 0,000 loan by saying she was self-employed when she in fact she wasn’t. Before this housing and banking collapse you could get a loan without documenting your income and your ability to pay by claiming you’re self-employed. Nice little loop-hole huh? Anyway, she never said she was self-employed mind you but the guy that worked out her loan said he would put in through like this otherwise she would never qualify for a loan. I couldn’t be on the loan because I had lost my house to foreclosure due to a nasty divorce a year before that. It’s now been more than 2 years since my fore

I’ve lived in a co-op for over 20 years. Recently, the HUD loan was paid off for this property. Now, we have converted to market rate condos, and we can sell our unit for whatever the market will bear.
I could really use a loan for paying down debt I’ve aquired over the years, and for home improvement as well. Would it be possible for me to obtain a mortgage for maybe half of what my unit is worth (,000-25,000), and like buy it from MYSELF, so I can keep the place I live in, and also have money to payoff some high interest loans and credit cards? It’d be like a refinance, but I am basically not financed at the moment. Others here have sold to real estate offices, and other buyers. I am just interested in getting some equity out of my unit for now. I am ready to move immediately forward if this, if this is a possibility. What do you all think? Possible, or IMpossible?
