COURSE OVERVIEW
Mortgage transactions can be complex processes. Because of this, you need to be prepared to resolve issues as they arise.
This course covers your responsibilities and obligations when you act for mortgagees or mortgagors in transactions involving a mortgage of an estate or interest in land. So you can support your clients smoothly throughout the entire procedure.
You’ll learn how to recognise, advise and act on common mortgage transaction issues.
You’ll examine issues involving:
- The fundamental principles of land mortgages
- Your duties as a solicitor in NSW mortgage transactions over land
- Discharges, variations and priorities of mortgages
- Mortgagee’s powers on default
- Mortgagor’s defences
- The professional regulation of mortgage practices
The course contains content that falls within the mandatory CPD category of Professional Skills.
Note: Since 1 July 2019, all mortgages, discharges of mortgages, refinances or any combination of these must be lodged electronically.

"As a junior lawyer who has worked in a firm where the basic steps were not communicated, this course was extremely helpful, and I feel like I have a better understanding of the why behind the steps. Before doing the course, my biggest concern was not knowing how to explain the why to a client and I feel like I will need practice with this, but I now have the knowledge and resources. Thank you."
