Partial Release of Mortgage Property is a legal procedure where the lender agrees to release a portion of the property being mortgaged to the mortgagor, usually a bank or other financial institution. This procedure is typically used when the mortgagor wishes to sell the mortgaged property or to reduce the size of the loan. The lender can be a bank, credit union, or other financial institution. There are three types of Partial Release of Mortgage Property: Initial Release, Partial Release, and Final Release. Initial Release is when the mortgagor is released from the mortgage but still has an obligation to pay the remaining balance on the loan. Partial Release is when the mortgagor is released from a portion of the loan in exchange for a payment of a portion of the loan balance. Final Release is when the mortgagor is completely released from the loan and no further payments are required.
