These loans are typically intended for borrowers purchasing a second home for personal use, such as a vacation home or a secondary residence.

Warning: avoid unfamiliar sites, as many of them are scammers phishing for your personal information.Just remember that the real numbers will be different in the end.

I have no personal debt other than my mortgage and car.
