By getting a second mortgage you will be at a higher interest rate and introducing a 2nd payment, so it would be like having 2 mortgage payments. Albeit the 2nd one is probably much lower.
You should just negotiate a lower down payment and get a larger 1st mortgage.
I would consult a mortgage broker, it is much easier dealing with 1 broker then hunting for a lender. Let the broker do the neg’ing for you. They usually find a better rate anyway.

Not going to happen these days. It’s next to impossible to find a lender who will grant a mortgage for more than the purchase price of the property.

It is going to be tough to get more than the purchase price of the home. There are a few lenders who might be willing to lend 125% but the interest rate will be on the higher side.
You will not know for sure till you ask around and do your research. Use a site like Bills.com to get quotes from multiple lenders, that way you will know the chances of getting the kind of loan you are looking for.
