Power of Sale
This legal term is included in all mortgage documents and it allows the lender to repossess your property if mortgage payments, monthly condo fees or property tax payments are not made. In the event of a default, the lender will take legal measures to sell the property to recover the losses and repay the debts.
Typically, as this process is often lengthy and costly, lenders do not want to resort to a Power of Sale and would prefer other alternatives. An option available for you is to speak with a mortgage broker to secure another mortgage loan.
