mortgage agreements

Property financing contracts

Mortgage agreements are legal contracts in which a borrower pledges real property as security for a loan, typically to purchase that same property.

The lender holds a claim on the property until the debt is repaid; failure to meet payments can result in foreclosure.

These documents specify the loan amount, interest rate, repayment schedule, and conditions under which the lender may seize the property: The couple signed mortgage agreements on both their house and vacation cabin.
