combine two mortgages into one

We have two mortgages on our home right now, a first and second mortgage. I want to combine them both with a refinance, but last time we had the house appraised it was at 187,000 and the total loan amount for both mortgages is 176,000. Is there any way to refinance this? We have good credit. by amydevlep from Charlotte, North Carolina. Feb 9th 2011 Reply

You can go FHA up to 97.5% of the value. There are some factors to consider before making this decision. I lend in all States. Get a quote from a coulpe people and call it a day. Hope this helps. RC

That shouldn't be a problem. The only issue you could have there is when you took out the second mortgage. As long as its over a year ago then you would qualify for an FHA loan. I would think you should be able to find something in the 4.75% range with 0 points. Good luck.

Wow, sell, sell, sell - forget about what's good for the consumer!Why exactly do you want to combine the two loans? Did you take out both loans at the time you bought the home? (ie, did you ever take equity out of the property?). If you are looking to combine the two to reduce the rate, you may be disappointed in the savings if you go FHA, due to the MIP. If you desire to combine the two in order to take advantage of the lower rates, you very well could do better keeping them as two mortgages and refinance doing an 80/15/5. Many will tell you these loans do not exist or impossible to find, but I can prove them wrong.
