What does ISAOA mean on a first mortgagee?

ISAOA stands for "Interest of the Secured Party, as an Owner or Assignee." In the context of a first mortgagee, it refers to a clause in insurance policies that protects the lender's interest by ensuring that any insurance proceeds are paid to the lender in the event of a loss. This clause ensures that the mortgagee's financial interest in the property is safeguarded, allowing them to recover losses before any funds are distributed to the property owner.
