There is a huge array of options available when it comes to choosing the type of mortgage you want to go with.
Mortgage types are split into two types in the UK.
You can either choose a repayment mortgage or an interest only mortgage.
The latter type would see you only repay interest applied to the loan which would mean you are never actually paying back the principal sum borrowed so while your monthly payments may be lower you are not repaying the debt so it will take much lower to pay back the whole loan. Therefore in the long run when interest is taken into account you will actually be repaying a lot more to the mortgage lender.
The second option is to go with a repayment mortgage. This will mean the monthly payment to the mortgage lender will repay part mortgage loan and part interest.
Therefore as you are clearing more of the mortgage each month your overall debt will be cleared sooner and at a lower cost.
The obvious disadvantage is that your monthly payments will be much higher so you should take this into account when choosing a mortgage type.
A mortgage broker would be able to advise you on this and most would work out the deposit you need as well as workout your monthly repayments so you can compare how much you would be repaying to the mortgage lender each month.
In the current economic climate affordability is a major factor when taking out a mortgage.
When choosing which mortgage type to go with, it is important to ensure you can make the monthly repayments but also ensure that the mortgage is of the best value to you.
Most mortgage brokers will search the whole of the market, using their services will mean you can find the best deal for you. Mortgage rates are changing more frequently than ever as the Bank of England changes interest rates in its attempt to turn the economy around. It may be better to hold off until mortgage lending rates improve.
Mortgage brokers can go through the different types of mortgages to ensure you are prepared when you do decide to take out a mortgage.

When a senior lien forecloses, a junior lien is wiped out.
So if the first mortgage holder forecloses, the second trust deed goes away. If the second forecloses, you'll still owe the first.
Oftentimes, if a senior lien forecloses, the junior lien holder will send a representative to the auction to defend its interests by making sure the property goes for enough to pay the junior lien as well. Or they buy it themselves with the idea of reselling. Costs money, yes. But better than losing their whole investment.
That depends on a few things.
How much equity do you have in your current home?
What is your credit score?
What is your debt load?
Yes you can get a 2nd mortgage on your current home to buy another, people do it all the time.
Your income must support maintaining your current home (you should be able to get a renter in there to offset the mortgage payment or some portion there of) and support your new mortgage.
You can get a loan with a BK. Many lenders require it to be discharged for 2 years, however, there are still a few lenders that will lend on a BK only being discharged 1 day.
In a nutshell, yes you can, if all your other ducks are in a row.
Good luck
You bring up an important question. The best data I can find on the 'net are figures for 2003 (USA Today) – nothing newer available according to them. If that number is correct then the total mortgage debt in the US, 2003, $6.3 trillion. Some adjustments must be made for the past four years- higher, I'm sure.
Lots of bucks out there!!
PMI protects the lender in case your loan goes into default. The only way to have it removed is when you owe less than 80% of your home's value.
