Right to Cancel on 'Abundance of Caution' Mortgage

Answered by: 

Question: 
Is a right to cancel required when an 'abundance of caution' mortgage is taken on a personal residence? This is when the loan is clearly for personal, not business, purposes.
Answer: 

Yes. Anytime a new or increased security interest is taken on the borrower's principal dwelling for a consumer purpose the right to cancel will apply.
