The Private Mortgage Agreement is a crucial document in Philippine real estate financing, used when an individual or entity borrows money using real property as collateral. This agreement type is commonly utilized in both residential and commercial property transactions, governed by Philippine banking laws and the Civil Code. It provides security for the lender while establishing clear rights and obligations for the borrower. The document must include specific provisions required by Philippine law, such as proper property description, payment terms, default provisions, and remedies. It requires notarization and registration with appropriate government offices to be legally enforceable. The agreement protects both parties by clearly defining loan terms, conditions for default, and foreclosure procedures, while ensuring compliance with local regulations including the Truth in Lending Act and relevant Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas circulars.
