New Jersey Lease Subordination Agreement
About this form
The Lease Subordination Agreement is a legal document that allows a lienholder's claims on a property to be subordinated to a mineral, oil, or gas lease. This means that the lease takes priority over existing liens, enabling the lessee to operate under the lease without conflict from the lienholder's mortgage or deed of trust. Unlike standard lease agreements, this form specifically addresses the relationship between liens and lease agreements in real property transactions.

FAQ
Unless there is a subordination agreement, it is virtually impossible to refinance your first mortgage. The document agreeing to the subordination must be signed by the lender and the borrower and requires notarization.
Despite its technical-sounding name, the subordination agreement has one simple purpose. It assigns your new mortgage to first lien position, making it possible to refinance with a home equity loan or line of credit. Signing your agreement is a positive step forward in your refinancing journey.
But as property values are going up and the demand for refinance isn't as much, it seems that the subordination process has gotten a little easier. Typically, it takes two to three weeks to get the resubordination paperwork through, and it is likely to set you back $200 to $300.
