Terms Used In Iowa Code 654.25

  • Foreclosure: A legal process in which property that is collateral or security for a loan may be sold to help repay the loan when the loan is in default. Source: OCC
  • Mortgage: The written agreement pledging property to a creditor as collateral for a loan.
  • Mortgagee: The person to whom property is mortgaged and who has loaned the money.
  • Plaintiff: The person who files the complaint in a civil lawsuit.
 If the plaintiff has elected foreclosure without redemption, chapter 628 does not apply. A provision in a mortgage permitted by section 628.26 or 628.27 shall not be construed as an agreement by the mortgagee not to elect foreclosure without redemption. The election may be made in any petition filed on or after June 4, 1987. The election for foreclosure without redemption is not a waiver of the plaintiff’s rights under section 654.6 except as provided in section 654.26.
