Section 1.20 discusses how mortgages and other hypothecation of security affects the lease.

Lease Subordinate

The lease is subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, etc., current and future, and any advances made on security. Renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions are also included.

What does this mean for you?

The lease can be affected by mortgages and other hypothecation of security. For example, if the owner of the property was to default on the mortgage, the lender could choose to evict the resident.
