Home | $20 To $30 | Low Rate Mortage What Is A Mortgage? By: John Andrews/Steven There are many misconceptions about mortgages which I hope this article will put right. The worst thing to call one is a mortgage home loan and while this expression is in common usage, it is totally incorrect. The mortgagor is the person who owes money to the mortgagee (the person who finances the deal) using a legal contract called a mortgage. Actually, it is in fact a legal document that is designed to ensure the lenders financial interests are secure. The facility that a mortgage creates means individuals and companies can acquire land or property without needing the full face value to purchase it at the time. There are also misconceptions about how they work so below is a description of how the process works. Unfortunately it is our own common use of word like Borrower and Lender that has mislead people into thinking a mortgage is a loan when they should be referred to as Mortgagor and Mortgagee respectively. The security is in fact a lien which means the mortgagee has legal possession of your property until the debt is repaid. This is the collateral or the security for the mortgagee who has provided the security instrument. Being a legal contract, the lien will be lodged within the records at the county or city courthouse (or a similar public office). While the property is owned now by the mortgagor, the lien cannot be reversed until the amount specified in the debt is paid off. What this means is that even though the mortgagee has possession of the mortgage he is not the owner of the property nor does he have the title. The only right that your mortgage gives to the mortgagee over your property is to sell it to recover funds in the case that you do not pay off your debt. When this happens, the procedure that follows is called foreclosure but even at this stage it is required to go through the courts first. This procedure is carried out in order for it to be legally recognized and can be referred to as Judicial Foreclosure. For the sake of clarity this is only a brief description of a much more complex subject but it should have helped explain the basic subject.
