A mortgage is giving another party a security interest in something you own. If you own a co-tenancy in some realty, just as a co-tency in say common stock, you may mortage your co-tenancy. But only thhose cotenancies subject to freely tranferability. Therefore tenancies by the entireties cannot be mortgaged by just one holder but must be done by both tenants. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bona Fides (talk • contribs)
