When a mortgage is viewed as a lien--that is, a claim against or right in property--the question of priority of claim may arise, for if the borrower requires additional funds the same property may be mortgaged not once but two or more times. A first mortgage has prior claim, though not necessarily in time; a second mortgage has second claim, after the first mortgage .... In the case of default, the holder of a second mortgage generally receives no payment until the claims of the first mortgage have been satisfied. 2, record 2, English, - priority%20of%20mortgage
