What is the meaning of mortgage loan?

mortgage loan is an advance of funds from a lender, called the mortgagee, to a borrower, called the mortgagor, secured by real property and evidenced by a document called a mortgage. The mortgage sets forth the conditions of the loan, the manner and duration of repayment, and reserves to the mortgagee the right to repossess the pledged property if the mortgagor fails to repay any portion of principal and interest.
