What does a partial release clause in a Blanket Mortgage allow for?

A partial release clause in a blanket mortgage allows the borrower to release individual properties from the mortgage. This type of clause is beneficial when a borrower has multiple properties under one mortgage and wants to sell one or more of those properties without having to pay off the entire mortgage. By including a partial release provision, the borrower can ensure that the specific property being sold is released from the mortgage obligation, while the remaining properties still remain secured under that umbrella mortgage. This structure provides flexibility in property management and financing, enabling borrowers to liquidate assets as needed without incurring additional costs associated with refinancing or paying off the full mortgage.
