In exercising her right to possession upon default, the woman became a mortgagee in possession and incurred the same liability in tort as the record title owner. Answer A is incorrect. "If, but only if" are words of warning on the MBE that are most likely included in an incorrect answer choice. As a mortgagee in possession, the woman has the same liabilities as the property owner. Answer C is incorrect. Marie had a right to enter the property to prevent waste that would jeopardize her security interest. Answer D is incorrect. This is incorrect for the same reasons set out in (A) and (C). Answer B is correct. In exercising her right to possession upon default, the woman became a mortgagee in possession and incurred the same liability in tort as the record title owner.

The she applied the profits to the loan balance. She was standing in the shoes of the owner. She is liable for injuries in place of the absent owner. (I wonder if she could get insurance while she was running the operation that she did not own? Lack of liability insurance means she would be personally liable for the injuries. Not good for her. ) B

The woman was on the land because it is presumed that the man had defaulted on the loan (i.e. he left the state with no say as to his whereabouts). Since this incident with the business invitee occurred during the middle of the loan period, she is a mortgagee in possession, and does not have title to the land since the mortgage has not yet matured.
