An estoppel certificate is a legal document by which the mortgagor (borrower) certifies that the mortgage debt is a lien for the amount stated. Subsequently, the debtor is prevented from claiming that the balance due differs from the amount stated.
A mortgage is a legal agreement by which a sum of money is lent to a borrower for purchasing property, with the property serving as collateral. The borrower is the mortgagor, and the lender is the mortgagee.
A mortgagor is an individual or entity that borrows money through a mortgage by pledging property as security for the loan.
