Mortgage Definition
A mortgage is a type of lien on the real estate property it is registered against, and represents security for the debt. Separate and apart from the security, a mortgage is a promise to pay. Most homeowners in today’s financial market are familiar with, or engaged in, a mortgage agreement, and possibly a Loan Enforcement situation.
Power of Sale, Covenant & Creditor
If a mortgage goes into default the creditor can get paid from selling the real estate property (Power of Sale) as well as by getting a judgment on the promise to pay (usually referred to as the covenant). Alternatively, the creditor (usually called the mortgagee) can start a foreclosure proceeding to take title to the real estate property, which is more common in situations where selling the property may not result in a full recovery.

Default & Demand
At Levy Zavet Lawyers our legal experts can help you with any mortgage default & demand letter situation.
Mortgage Default Definition
A mortgage default or lone default means that the borrower violated one or more of the terms of the mortgage or loan agreement, including a promissory note. A promissory note, loan or mortgage agreement is a contract that lists all the terms and obligations of the debt. The most obvious default is failure to make a required regular payment.
However, a number of other things can be classified as defaults as well. These include not having property insurance, not paying property taxes, obtaining a subsequent mortgage or other loan on the property, failing to take adequate care of the property or security, trying to sell the property or security without consent or paying off the debt.
Because the real estate property, such as a home, is security or collateral for the loan, a lender has an interest in maintaining its value. Failing to have proper insurance or failing to pay property taxes, for example, can jeopardize the value of the property or equity remaining for the lender to recover against on a sale.
Demand Letter Definition
A demand letter is a formal legal document sent by us to the debtor or borrower, including any guarantors, requesting payment or other action to right a wrong such as a breach of any of the terms of the loan agreement, including paying the arrears, interest, penalties and other costs such as your legal fees.

Let the lawyers at Levy Zavet immediately demand that the borrower remedy any default prior to taking further enforcement proceedings in an attempt to save the loan, and advise on all matters of debt collection and legal demand, including court proceedings.
