Argentina (AR) — civil law.
Nothing on this page describes United States practice. There is no certificate sold to an investor, no administrative sale of land for unpaid tax, and no redemption window after a

Cesión del crédito hipotecario — transferring the secured loan and its hipoteca
Non-performing mortgage loans change hands in Argentina as everywhere: a bank sells a

accessory. The auction-relevant questions are who may sue, when the transfer binds the
debtor and the registry, and what defences survive it.
