Finance

A NH borrower receives a mortgage with a 'due-on-sale' clause. This clause means:

AThe mortgage automatically transfers to the buyer when the property is sold
BThe entire loan balance becomes due and payable when the property is sold or transferred✓ Correct
CThe mortgage rate increases when the property is sold
DThe lender must approve all future sales of the property

Explanation

A due-on-sale (acceleration) clause requires the full loan balance to be paid upon the sale or transfer of the property. This prevents buyers from assuming the seller's below-market mortgage without lender approval. Most conventional mortgages contain due-on-sale clauses.
