[. . . ] The mortgage value of each property is printed on the back of each Title Deed. This must be repaid, along with the full amount borrowed, when the mortgage is lifted. If you buy a mortgaged property, you may choose to lift the mortgage at once by paying the principal plus 10% interest. If you do not lift the mortgage immediately, you must still pay the interest when buying the property, and if you choose to lift the mortgage later on, you must pay the Bank an additional 10% interest as well as the amount of the mortgage.

BANKRUPTCY You are declared bankrupt if you owe more than you can pay either to another player or to the Bank. If your debt is to another player, you must turn over to that player all that you have of value and retire from the game. If you own houses or hotels, you must return these to the Bank, which will buy them for half their cost, as printed on the Title Deeds. If you have mortgaged property, you also turn it over to your creditor, and the new owner must at once pay the Bank the amount of interest on the loan, which is 10% of the value of the property. If the new owner does not lift the mortgage, he/she must still pay the interest. If the new owner lifts the mortgage later, he/she will pay additional interest at 10% as well as the principal.
