Description

A Mortgage is a pledge of real property to a creditor as security for the repayment of a debt involving the property. For example, if you have borrowed money to purchase a house, the entity that you borrowed the money from can take ownership of the home should you default on payments. The promissory note executed along with the mortgage creates an obligation to repay the debt. The Statute of Frauds requires that a mortgage must be in writing. Mortgages must be registered with the County Recorder or Recorder of Deeds. An assignment of mortgage is a transfer of the mortgage to another party. The Wisconsin Assignment of Mortgage is a legal document used to transfer the rights and interest of a mortgage from one party to another. When a borrower obtains a mortgage loan, they sign a promissory note and a mortgage securing the loan. The mortgage is a lien on the property, and if the borrower fails to repay the loan according to the agreed terms, the lender has the right to foreclose on the property and sell it to recover their investment. However, mortgage lenders often sell their loans or transfer the servicing rights to another financial institution. In such cases, an assignment of mortgage is necessary to legally transfer the mortgage from the original lender to the new entity responsible for collecting mortgage payments and enforcing the terms of the loan. This assignment ensures that the new lender or service has the legal authority to take action in case of default. The Wisconsin Assignment of Mortgage is governed by specific laws and regulations to ensure a transparent and lawful transfer process. It requires certain information to be included, such as the names of the assignor (original lender) and assignee (new lender or service), the date of assignment, the original mortgage details, and the property information being secured by the mortgage. In Wisconsin, there are no specific types of assignment of mortgage. However, variations can occur based on the type of loan being assigned or the nature of the transaction. For example, if a mortgage loan is being sold in the secondary market, an assignment may be executed to transfer the rights from the original lender (often a bank) to an investor or another financial institution. Alternatively, an assignment may be used when a mortgage loan is being refinanced, and the original lender transfers the mortgage to a new lender that provides better terms or a lower interest rate.
