Simple Mortgage
In a simple mortgage, the possession of the
mortgaged property is not transferred from
mortgagor to the mortgagee. If the mortgagor fails
to repay the loan, the mortgagee has the right to
sell the property and recover the loan from the
sale amount.
Mortgage by Conditional Sale
Under such mortgage, the mortgagor apparently
sells the property of mortgagee on certain
conditions-
On failure to repay the mortgage money before
a certain date the sale shall become absolut, or
On condition that on such repayment of
mortgage money the sale shall become invalid,
or
On condition that on such repayment the
mortgagee shall retransfer the property.
In such case, the mortgagee is a "mortgagee by
conditional sale".
Usufructuary Mortgage
In a Usufructuary Mortgage, the possession of the
mortgaged property is transferred to the
mortgagee. The mortgagee receives the income
from the property (rent, profit, interest, etc.) until
the repayment of the loan. The title deeds remain
with the owner.
English Mortgage
In an English Mortgage-
The mortgagor binds himself to repay the
borrowed money on a certain date.
The mortgagor transfers the property absolutely
to the mortgagee.
But such transfer is subject to the condition that
the mortgagee will transfer the property on
repayment before the agreed date.
Mortgage by Deposit of title of deeds
In such Mortgage, the mortgagor delivers the title
document of the property to the mortgagee with an
intention to create a security thereon. Such
mortgage is valid in towns of Kolkatta, Mumbai and
any other town as the State Government may notify
by Publication of Official Gazette.
Anomalous Mortgage
Anomalous Mortgage is a combination of different
types of mortgages. A mortgage which does not fall
strictly into any of the above mortgages is an
anomalous mortgage.
CREDIT
Credit means someone is willing to loan you money
called principal in exchange for your promise to
repay it, usually with interest.
Interest is the amount you pay to use someone
else's money.
The money higher the interest rate, the higher the
total amount you pay to buy something on credit.
