In this episode you will learn: - The promissory note is the evidence of debt (an IOU), while the mortgage is the security instrument pledging the property as collateral. - Florida is a lien theory state, meaning the borrower holds legal title to the property and the lender holds a lien. - The acceleration clause allows a lender to demand the full loan balance upon default, initiating the foreclosure process. - Florida requires a judicial foreclosure process and recognizes a borrower's equitable right of redemption, which exists only *before* the foreclosure sale. - Lenders may obtain a deficiency judgment if the foreclosure sale does not cover the full amount of the outstanding debt.
