Hi,
To apply for a second mortgage, does the first mortgage have to be declared ?

    What are you trying to achieve?


    Mortgages show on credit searches and land registry data.

    Worried as a very close friend has not declared they already own a property when applying for a second mortgage, I don't know but feel something is not quite right ?

    What is the intention? What is happening with the current property?

    It is not a problem Lorca.

    Your friend will be declined and may end up on a Lender's market wide 'bad boy' list at worst.

    Questioned, asked to clarify, and lent to anyway at best.

    Simple.
