הסבר על מהות של חברה משכנת:
כי חברה אשר בונה בנייני מגורים, מוכרת את הדירות, רושמת בית משותף , ומתחייבת להעביר הדירות ע"ש הרוכשים (בין אם נכנה אותה "חברה משכנת", ובין אם לאו)

Asker: Thank you! Can I say "collateral company" for חברה משכנת?


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Zmira Hajudge: That's an option as well
2 mins
  -> Thanks. Maybe an accountant can tell us which is better in this case.

disagree  Donn Hyman (X): collateral = בטחון also - there is no connection between - משכון לחברה משכנת
8 hrs
  -> Nobody said there was a connection. Why don't you read carefully before commenting? I answered a question about חברה משכנת

pledge


Explanation:
confirming LegalAce, and apologizing for not responding sooner.
I'd do the whole phrase as: to sign an application to register a caveat and/or pledge in favor of me and/or a third party [or, if you can be less literal, 'in my favor and/or that of a third party].
חברה משכנת is a housing company. According to the aklaw site it's a company that has Ministry of Housing approval for construction projects connected with the Ministry.
