spinoff to PMI & 2nd mortgage
I have never heard of a 2nd mortgage. (I know I must be clueless)
How do you apply for 2 mortgages at once?

Re: spinoff to PMI & 2nd mortgage
With our first house we put down 10% and took out a HELOC for the remaining 10% in order to avoid PMI.
With the house we are closing on next month are putting 15% down and were going to do the same thing but instead we are buying out the PMI at closing. This way we will only have 1 loan.

We did the same thing, 10% down and took a HELOC for the remaining to avoid PMI. My Mrtg Broker set both up for me.

Our broker set up two mortgages for us so that we could put less down and avoid PMI.

Us too. The HELOC is shorter term and at a higher interest rate.
