What Is a Private Mortgage?
Traditionally, the path that people take is to go through the bank; however, there is the possibility one might be rejected from the bank and the route to go through is a private mortgage. A private mortgage is a mortgage that is offered by another person or a business. Usually, this is the only viable option once a bank has rejected your application. Although many have stated they favour this over being lent a mortgage from a bank.
