    =owever, when there is

    merely an offer of a"uaranty, or merely aconditional "uaranty, in thesense that it re#uires actionby the creditor before theobligation becomes fied, itdoes not become bindinguntil it is accepted and untilnotice of such acceptance bythe creditor is given to, or

    ac#uired by, the guarantor,or until he has notice or!nowledge that the creditorhas performed the conditionand intends to act upon theguaranty.

    4ut in any case, the creditoris not precluded fromwaiving the re#uirement ofnotice.

    The consideration of theguaranty is the same as the

    consideration of the principalobligation.

    NOTES:

    As an accessory contract, itsconsideration is that of the principalcontract from which it receives life.

    A mortgage does not involve atransfer, cession or conveyance ofproperty but only constitutes a lienthereon. /ntil discharged, it followsthe property wherever it goes andsubsists notwithstanding changes ofownership.

    A mortgage gives the mortgagee no

    right or claim to the possession ofthe property, and therefore, a meremortgagee has no right to e)ect an

    occupant of the property mortgagedunless the mortgage should containsome provision to that effect. Theonly right of a mortgagee in case ofnon-payment of a debt secured bymortgage would be to foreclose themortgage and have the encumberedproperty sold to satisfy theoutstanding indebtedness. 6f thepossession is transferred to themortgagee, it must not epressly befor purpose of applying the fruits tothe interest then to the principal of

    the credit, for then it would be anantichresis.

    6t is not an essential re#uisite that

    the principal of the mortgage creditbears interest, or that the interestas compensation for the use of theprincipal and en)oyment of its fruitsbe in the form of a certain percentthereof.
