Mortgage changes keep their legal priority

Beginning July 1, 2026, covered mortgage changes keep the original mortgage securing the changed debt without replacing it. The mortgage keeps its place ahead of lower-priority claims, even when the change is not recorded. This applies regardless of when the original mortgage or debt was created. Covered changes include longer loan terms, lower rates, certain rate-index changes, and switches between fixed and adjustable rates. Specified index or rate changes qualify only if they do not raise the rate on the change’s effective date. Coverage also includes adding unpaid interest or fees to principal, debt forgiveness or reduction, and delayed payments. Changes to tax and insurance accounts, insurance requirements, conditions for advancing funds, financial promises, and resulting payment amounts or schedules also qualify. Changes to property or borrowers, mortgage or debt transfers, and agreements securing homeowners’ association charges are excluded. Other modifications are not automatically invalid or stripped of priority. Existing recording rules, tax-lien priority, enforcement rules, and required legal formalities remain unchanged. Electronic records and signatures are recognized, but federal consumer-consent rules and limits on electronic delivery of certain notices remain in place.
