What is a Mortgage Possession?

Mortgage possession involves legal proceedings in which a mortgagee, or other lienholder, usually a lender, obtains a court order for possession of a property, prior to exercising the mortgagor’s equitable right of redemption.

Basically, if you default on your mortgage payments, your mortgage lender will want you to clear them. If you don’t do this, your mortgage lender will start court action against you. This is called possession action and could lead to you losing your home.

• the contract is one where a lender provides credit to an individual known as the borrower
• the contract provides for the obligation of the borrower to repay to be secured by a mortgage land
• at least 40% of that land is used, or is intended to be used, as or in connection with a dwelling.

The FCA updated its policy on mortgage possession in light of COVID-19 to forbid lenders enforcing repossession orders before 31 January 2021 except in exceptional circumstances, such as a customer requesting that proceedings continue

The consumer credit guidance states that before 31 January 2021 lenders should not terminate a regulated agreement or repossess goods or vehicles under the agreement that the customer needs, except in exceptional circumstances.

If you think your mortgage lender breached the FAC rules OneLaw Chambers can help you raise a claim.
