Pledger or mortgagor is the absolute owner. The person constituting the pledge must
be the absolute owner of the thing pledged or mortgaged, otherwise it is void. Be
it noted that the principal debtor may not be the pledger of the thing pledged.

Yung mortgage ba pwedeng pangsecure sa future?
real estate mortgages to permit optional' future advances which enables the mortgagee to
make funds available to the mortgagor for later repairs, replacements or improvements.
Mortgages for future advances generally make available opportunities for long term repayments
and will frequently make additional funds available for the purchasing of chattels or fixtures at
the same low interest rate rather than force the borrower to finance household goods by
purchasing on an installment plan with a high "finance charge" or by small loans, secured or
unsecured, which also typically provide high interest rates.'
At the same time the mortgagor is encouraged to reduce the mortgage debt because he can
more readily obtain the money necessary to make repairs to the property as they are required.
Furthermore, the mortgagor finds a distinct advantage in eliminating the expenses attendant
upon the execution of subsequent mortgages as each later advancement is made,'
However, the use of the optional type is not limited to homes which are newly purchased. For a
discussion of the varied applications of this mortgage, see Architectural Forum, "The Open End
Mortgage", June, 1949, p. 102; Fortune, Sept., 1949, p. 18. 6. This is accomplished by the
combined use of a mortgage for future advances and the "package mortgage". By the use of the
package mortgage, newly constructed homes can be sold equipped with such essentials as
refrigerators, stoves, washing machines, or other appliances, with the entire "package"
constituting the security. It will generally provide for a composite rate of interest at about four
or five per cent which covers the loan on the real property, fixtures, and chattels. At the same
time it provides for an extended payment term.
Pactum comissorium
It is a stipulation authorizing the creditor to appropriate the things given by way of pledge
and mortgage or to dispose of them. It is declared null and void by law. (Art 2088).
Reason : The amount of the loan is ordinarily much less than the value of the security.
Note: The appropriation must be automatic without need of further act on the part of the
debtor. Hence, the prohibition does not apply to:
a. Subsequent voluntary act of the debtor of making cession of the property or;
b. A promise to assign or sell said property in payment of the debt.
Pwede bang ilagay yung pangalan ni pledgee sa ownership ni pledger incase na di makabayad si
pledger?
The pledgee has the right of selling the pledge if the pledgor fails to make payment at the
stipulated time.
No title to a third party purchaser is guaranteed following a wrongful sale except in the case
of property passing by delivery, such as money or negotiable securities.
In all other cases, persons must show that they are a bona fide purchaser, for (good) value,
without notice (BFP). In the case of some types of property as defined on the detailed laws of
the jurisdiction, such a new possessor (BFP) must have first consulted (before purchase)
revealing no other ownership and then made a public notice or registered their title in a
court-recognised register before the pledgor. After a wrongful sale by a pledgee (such as if
the pledgor has been keeping to his payment schedule and will have the right to redeem the
goods if continuing to do so), the pledgor cannot recover the pledge/the value of the pledge
without a tender of (full payment of) the amount due (secured under the pledge). [3] Thar
contrasts with the general law of mortgages, which allows most mortgagors to sustain a
cause of action (sue) on a wrongful sale to restore the property into their qualified ownership
if they bring any payment arrears up to date.

was so adjourned. Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of
redemption with respect to the collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any of marshalling
the Collateral and any other security for the Secured Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by
applicable law, the Pledgee may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such
right or equity of redemption. The Pledgee shall not be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the
Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall the Pledgee be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever
with regard thereto;
(e) to settle, adjust, compromise and arrange all accounts, controversies, questions, claims and
demands whatsoever in relation to all or any part of the Collateral;
(f) in respect of the Collateral, to execute all such contracts, agreements, deeds, documents and
instruments, to bring, defend and abandon all such actions, suits and proceedings, and to take all actions in relation
to all or any part of the Collateral as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine;
(g) to appoint managers, sub-agents, officers and servants for any of the purposes mentioned in the
foregoing provisions of this Section and to dismiss the same, all of the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may
determine; and
(h) generally, to take all such other action as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine as
incidental or conducive to any of the matters or powers mentioned in the foregoing provisions of this Section and
which the Pledgee may or can do lawfully and to use the name of the Pledgor for the purposes aforesaid and in any
proceedings arising therefrom.
The Pledgor recognizes that the Pledgee may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Collateral,
by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and
applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a
restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their
own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor acknowledges and
agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public
sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner. The Pledgee shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the
Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities or other interests for
public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do
so. The Pledgor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may
be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to this Section valid and
binding and in compliance with applicable law. The Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants
contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Pledgee, that the Pledgee has no adequate remedy at law
in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be
specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses
against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has
occurred under the Loan Agreement.

Definition of foreclosure
Foreclosure is a legal process that allows lenders to recover the amount owed on a
defaulted loan by taking ownership of and selling the mortgaged property. The
foreclosure process varies by state, but in general, lenders try to work with borrowers to
get them caught up on payments and avoid foreclosure.
b. Extra-judicial Foreclosure – The sale is made by the mortgagee himself when authorized by
the Chattel mortgage contract or by special law.
What is redemption?
Redemption may be defined as a transaction by which the mortgagor reacquires or buys back the
property, which may have been passed under the mortgage or divests the property of the lien,
which the mortgage may have created.

the obligation, the basis shall be the sum of the principal obligation and interest earned at the
time the obligation matured.
