FAQ
The signed agreement must be acknowledged by a notary and recorded in the official records of the county to be enforceable.
A subordination agreement acknowledges that one party's claim or interest is superior to that of another party in the event that the borrower's assets must be liquidated to repay the debts.
When a Borrower wishes to refinance the property, they must request a subordination request to the Lender. The Lender will subordinate their loan only when there is no cash out as part of the refinance.
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.
A subordination agreement often comes up when a home has a first and a second mortgage, and the borrower wants to refinance the first mortgage. If you have two mortgages on your home and refinance the first loan, the refinancing lender might require a subordination agreement.
Subordination agreements are prepared by your lender. The process occurs internally if you only have one lender. When your mortgage and home equity line or loan have different lenders, both financial institutions work together to draft the necessary paperwork.
A subordination fee is a fee directly related to the credit transaction. There is no comparable cash transaction to compare it to and a subordination is not a required document to perfect your lien. It's only required to perfect your lien in the position that you required as a condition of making the loan.
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.
