Mortgages

Legal written documents that pledge properties to the lender as collateral security for payment of a debt. Mortgages are a form of secure credit that create a lien upon real estate as security for the payment of a specified debt. It means that when a mortgage is on a house, the lender can take possession of the house in the event that borrower stops making payments.
