Mary gives this security to the lender, and in return, the lender gives Mary the loan. Since Mary is giving the mortgage to the lender she is considered the mortgagor. Since Mary recently obtained the loan, she is still considered the mortgagor. Once the loan is paid off, she will be considered the mortgagee.
