The answer is: D) An unambiguous description of the property that is being pledged as collateral for the loan.

Explanation:

A mortgage is a legal agreement the borrower makes with a financial institution (e. g. bank, credit union) to get a loan and uses real estate as collateral. Since the collateral is a very important part of the mortgage, it has to be properly registered, appraised, and the contract must contain a detailed description of the real estate used as collateral.
