A blanket mortgage lets Connecticut investors put several rentals under one loan, either to buy a group of homes together or to combine mortgages they already carry. Each property still gets its own title search, valuation and recorded lien, and the release clause sets what it costs to free one home for sale. Lenders in Connecticut write these loans on their own terms, so compare release prices and reserve expectations before you choose this route.

Common questions
Can I add a property to a blanket mortgage later?
Some lenders allow a property to be added or substituted, and others require a fresh loan. Substitution, where you swap one home for another of similar value, is sometimes written into the release terms. Ask about it up front if you expect to trade properties, and get the rules in writing, since they vary widely by lender.
Can I sell one house that is on a blanket loan in Connecticut?
Usually, if the loan has a release clause. You pay a release price set in the loan documents, and the lender removes its lien from that home so the sale can close. Release prices are often higher than the home's share of the balance. Ask how the price is figured and how long a release request takes before you list the property.
What is a blanket mortgage?
It is one loan secured by more than one property. You sign one note, and the lender records a lien on every property in the group. Investors use it to buy several rentals together or to combine existing mortgages into one payment. Each property still needs its own title work and valuation, and the release clause controls how individual homes leave the loan.
