    I'm more confused than you.

    Did you say that you took money (equity) out of the main house (first house) to purchase the second property by cash fully?

    Or does the second property have a mortgage also?

    Either way, both mortgages will be independent on what you do. If you sell the first house, you pay off the outstanding mortgage on that house. This will not affect the second property unless they have second charge (security) on this property.

    Remember to say thank you to people who help you out!
