Questions answered? Let's get started!

Use this form to release a portion of property secured by a mortgage and promissory note. Example: borrower has financed 5 lots for $100,000.00 which has since been paid down to a balance of $30,000.00. Borrower approaches Lender and would like the lender to release lot #3 because he has it sold. The lender might think, ok - he will owe me $30,000.00 on the remaining 4 lots, I consider this a good risk. The same can also be applicable to condominiums, apartments, parcels, etc.
