Partial Mortgage Release Agreement

"I need a Partial Mortgage Release Agreement under Nigerian law for releasing 2 hectares of commercial property in Lagos State from an existing mortgage with FirstBank Nigeria, with the release to be effective from March 15, 2025; the remaining 5 hectares will continue under the original mortgage terms."

Document background
The Partial Mortgage Release Agreement is a specialized legal instrument used in Nigerian property transactions when a property owner (mortgagor) needs to release a specific portion of land from an existing mortgage while maintaining the mortgage over the remaining property. This situation commonly arises in property development, subdivision of land, or partial property sales. The document must comply with the Land Use Act 1978, state property laws, and Central Bank of Nigeria regulations. It includes crucial elements such as property descriptions, release terms, and continuing security provisions. The agreement requires careful drafting to ensure proper registration with relevant land authorities and to maintain the enforceability of the mortgage over the remaining property. This document type is particularly important in Nigeria's growing real estate market where partial property developments and sales are increasingly common.
