A. The authority shall require, as a condition of making or purchasing a project mortgage loan, that the sponsor agree to comply with the requirements and to make the representations and warranties as the authority deems reasonably necessary to protect its interests in the project mortgage loan and the multiple-family dwelling project or transitional or congregate housing facility, including the following:

Terms Used In New Mexico Statutes 58-18-5.4

  • Appraisal: A determination of property value.
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
  • Mortgage: The written agreement pledging property to a creditor as collateral for a loan.
  • Mortgage loan: A loan made by a lender to a borrower for the financing of real property. Source: OCC
