simple mortgage clause

Read a random definition: law of deceit

A quick definition of simple mortgage clause:

A simple mortgage clause is a part of an insurance policy that protects the rights of a lender when the property being insured is subject to a mortgage. This clause usually states that any insurance payouts must be divided between the borrower and the lender based on their interests. It is also known as a mortgagee clause and is different from an open mortgage clause, which does not protect the lender if the borrower invalidates the policy.

A more thorough explanation:

A simple mortgage clause is a provision in an insurance policy that protects the rights of a mortgagee when the insured property is subject to a mortgage. It ensures that any insurance proceeds are allocated between the named insured and the mortgagee "as their interests may appear."

For example, if a homeowner has a mortgage on their property and the property is damaged in a fire, the insurance company will pay out the insurance proceeds to both the homeowner and the mortgagee. The amount each party receives will depend on their respective interests in the property.

A simple mortgage clause differs from an open mortgage clause, which does not protect the mortgagee if the insured mortgagor does something to invalidate the policy, such as committing fraud. A standard mortgage clause, on the other hand, protects the mortgagee's interest even if the insured mortgagor does something to invalidate the policy.

Overall, a simple mortgage clause is an important provision in an insurance policy that helps protect the interests of both the homeowner and the mortgagee.

Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances

Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
16:46

Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
16:48
goof
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
