WRAP-AROUND MORTGAGEA wrap-around mortgage is a vehicle sometimes used to provide secondary or additional financing. It is a mortgage which includes within its lien an existing or prior mortgage. The wrap-around mortgage assumes the existing or prior mortgage, includes it with any additional financing being provided, creates a new mortgage for the total amount and therefore, advances to a primary position. The mortgagor then makes one payment for the total amount to the wrap-around mortgagee, who in turn maintains the debt service on the prior obligation. | |
