A power of sale is a forced sale of a property by a mortgagee due to a default of one or more of the mortgagor’s obligations under the mortgage. These obligations include, among others:

  • making payments including principal and interest;
  • paying municipal realty taxes;
  • providing adequate insurance on the buildings; and,
  • keeping the property in good repair.

OREA now offers a new course by correspondence and CD-ROM that will take you through the power of sale process, the rights and obligations of the mortgagee and the mortgagor, and a registrant’s role in a power of sale transaction. The two-credit course also teaches how to protect a buyer when purchasing a power of sale property. The cost for the course is $25.
