Quick read of this judgment:- https://lnkd.in/eUQ-wUXt A default notice was served on an agent while the owner was overseas. The mortgaged property was sold for $2.01m (valued at $2.1m) by BNZ (the mortgagee) due to the default of payments for the secured loan of $3.21m. The property owner (the mortgagor) appealed on 2 grounds: (i) service of the default notice was irregular and ineffective and (ii) the mortgagee failed to take reasonable care in the sale. Held:- The service of notice on the agent (having ostensible authority) was effective. The joint corporate owner of the property had already been removed from the Companies Register before the time of service so no service was required. Besides, the sale price close to the valuation price was not unreasonable. Plus sufficient information on the property was available on various websites so there was no breach of the duty on the part of BNZ. #supremecourtnz #mortgagesale #procedure
