equitable mortgage

Definition

That does not meet the requirements of a legal mortgage but comes into effect by an agreement to create a legal mortgage or by the creation of an equitable charge such as for the repayment of a loan. It gives the mortgagee the right to foreclose on the property, sell it, or appoint a receiver in case of non payment.
