Response to Mortgage Deeds

Yet again another deeds question. I wouldn't rely on the non-signing of the deed to help you get off. The courts tend to take the view that you agreed and were happy to go along with the mortgage at the time. Suddenly things go wrong and you claim 'oh i never signed it' or 'they never signed it.' Courts tend to look at it from the point of view that you inteded the deed (contract) to be legally binding and as such, they may consider it as binding regardless of the signature of either parties. Sorry to have to tell you this, i just don't want people thinking that an unsigned deed will be thier saviour. Discalimer= I am not a lawyer and my advice should not be construed as having any legal effect.
