'MORTGAGE' 'MORTGAGOR' 'MORTGAGEE,' 'MORTGAGE-MONEY' AND
'MORTGAGE' DEFINED, (a) A mortgage is the transfer of an interest in specific immovable property for the purpose of securing the payment of money advanced or to be advanced by way of loan, an existing or future debt or the performance of an engagement which may give rise to a pecuniary liability. The transferor is called a mortgagor, the transferee a mortgagee; the principal money and interest of which payment is secured for the time being are called the mortgage-money and the instrument (if any) by which the transfer is effected is called a mortgage-deed. TYPES OF MORTGAGE (b) Simple mortgage. Where, without delivering possession of the mortgaged property, the mortgagor binds himself personally to gay the mortgage money, and agrees expressly or impliedly, that, in the event of his failing to pay according to his contract, the mortgagee shall have a right to cause the mortgaged property to be sold and the proceeds of sale to be applied, so far as may be necessary, in payment of the mortgage money, the transaction is called a simple mortgage and the mortgagee a simple mortgagee. (c) Mortgage by conditional sale. Where the mortgagor ostensibly sells the mortgaged property: on condition that on default of payment of the mortgage money on a certain date the sale shall become absolute; or on condition not on such payment being made the sale shall become void, or on condition that on such payment being made the buyer shall transfer the property to the seller, the transaction is called a mortgage by conditional sale and the mortgagee a mortgage by conditional sale: [Provided that no such transaction shall be deemed to be a mortgage, unless the condition is embodied in the document which effects or purports to effect the sale]. (d) Usufructuary mortgage. Where the mortgagor delivers possession [or expressly or by implication binds himself to deliver possession] of the mortgaged property to mortgagee, and authorises him to retain such possession until payment of the mortgagee-money, and to receive the rents and profits accruing from the property '[or any part of such rents and profits and to appropriate the same] -in lieu of interest, or in payment of the mortgage-money, '[or] part in lieu of interest or partly in payment of the mortgage-money, the transaction is called a usufructuary mortgage and the mortgagee a usufructuary mortgage. (e) English mortgage. Where the mortgagor binds himself to repay the mortgage-money on a certain date, and transfers the mortgaged property absolutely to the mortgagee, but subject to a proviso that he will re-transfer it to the mortgagor upon payment of the mortgage-money as agreed, the transaction is called an English mortgage. (f) Mortgage by deposit of tine-deeds. Where a person in [the town of] Karachi, and in any other town which the ''[Provincial Government] concerned may, by notification in the [official Gazette], specify in this behalf, delivers to a creditor or his agent documents of title to immovable property, with intent to create a security thereon, the transaction is called a mortgage by deposit of title-deeds. (g) Anomalous mortgage. A mortgage which is not a simple mortgage, a mortgage by conditional sale, a usufructuary mortgage, an English mortgage or a mortgage by deposit of title-deeds within the meaning of this section is called an anomalous mortgage.] ESSENTIALS OF MORTGAGE 1. Parties Involved: - Mortgagor: The borrower or property owner who pledges the real property as security for the loan. - Mortgagee: The lender or financial institution that provides the loan and receives the mortgage as security.
2. Creation of a Debt: - A mortgage is generally created to secure a debt or loan. It represents a contractual agreement where the borrower owes a debt to the lender.
3. Transfer of an Interest: - The mortgagor transfers an interest in the property to the mortgagee. This interest serves as security for the loan and is typically a lien on the property.
4. Writing and Formality:
- Mortgages must usually be in writing to be enforceable. There may also be specific formalities, such as the need for notarization or witnessing, depending on local property laws.
5. Description of the Property:
- The mortgage document must provide a clear and accurate description of the property being used as collateral. This description is important for identification and enforcement purposes.
6. Promise to Repay: - The mortgage document often includes a promise by the borrower to repay the loan according to specified terms, including the principal amount, interest rate, and repayment schedule.
7. Default and Remedies:
- The mortgage document outlines the conditions under which the borrower would be considered in default (failure to meet the loan obligations) and the remedies available to the lender in case of default. Common remedies include foreclosure and sale of the property. 8. Priority: - In cases where multiple mortgages or liens exist on the same property, the mortgage document may specify the priority of the mortgage concerning other encumbrances on the property.
9. Redemption Rights: - The mortgagor may have the right to redeem the property by repaying the debt in full, even after default but before foreclosure proceedings are completed.
10. Recording: - In many jurisdictions, mortgages must be recorded in a public land records office to provide notice to third parties of the mortgage's existence. This helps establish the priority of the mortgage against other claims on the property.
