Is guaranteeing the delivery of a stipulated mortgage valid?

Primary text

If an individual sells an item or lends something with the condition that the lender receives a mortgage over an item, and a third party guarantees the delivery of that mortgage, the guarantee is invalid.

Supporting text

This is because the mortgagor is not obligated to deliver or hand over the item in a manner that binds the guarantor, as the guarantor is only bound by what binds the original party.
