Creative Financing, Wraparound Loans

There are a variety of ways to finance a home, some being more traditional while others are lumped in the creative category. One form of creative financing is called a wraparound loan. A wraparound loan, also called an all-inclusive mortgage, enables a home buyer an alternative when he/she is unable to secure a more traditional mortgage.

A wraparound loan is, in effect, a second loan on a home, being placed below an original mortgage it will include the unpaid balance of the original mortgage as well as whatever additional money is necessary for the buyer to purchase the home.

A wraparound loan benefits both the seller and the buyer, enabling the buyer to acquire a new home without qualifying for a loan and allowing the seller to choose a higher interest rate. This is a viable option for a home buyer who is unable to get a home loan on his own.

The tightening of the financial market coupled with stricter lending policies has created the basic need for alternative methods of lending. A wraparound loan is not always feasible but can offer a home buyer a unique financing opportunity in the right situation.
