An Act To Amend Title 25 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Giving Certainity To The Mortgaging Of Leasehold Interests. [HB-256]
Delaware law is unclear whether, for purposes of this Section, the 10 year requirement applies to the original term of the lease as of the date it was entered into or the remaining balance of the term at the time of the mortgage transaction. The generally-accepted view in Delaware is that the original length of the term governs and not what remains of the term at the time of the mortgage. The purpose of this amendment is to allow for certainty regarding leasehold mortgage transactions in accordance with the custom and practice in Delaware.
