Answer #2 Yes, it is not uncommon. A home equity loan is asecond mortgage, and the process is essentiallythe same as refinancing your primarymortgage.Depending on your financial goals, youmay want to consolidate your first and secondmortgage into a single, low interest primarymortgage.This can be beneficial since secondmortgages (home equity loans, HELOCS, etc) alwayshave higher rates than first mortgages.However, ifyou are certain you want a new second mortgage,keep your credit clean, as second mortgage ratesare heavily dependent on your credit score (evenmore so than first mortgages)Feel free to checkout my mortgage information site (no, it's not asales site) http://www.mortgagemystery.com/ -it containts a good deal of useful informationabout every aspect of the loan process - answered by robert_byrne
