Mortgage Financing

Summary

Mortgage financing is a method of borrowing money to purchase real estate, where the property serves as collateral for the loan.

Detailed Description

Mortgage financing involves a lender providing a borrower with funds to buy property, with the loan secured against the property itself. The borrower agrees to repay the loan amount plus interest over a specified term, typically ranging from 15 to 30 years. If the borrower defaults on repayment, the lender has the right to take possession of the property through foreclosure.
