# Art. 3318. Right of third possessor for costs of improvements

A third possessor may recover the cost of any improvements he has made to the property to the extent the improvements have enhanced the value of the property, out of the proceeds realized from enforcement of the mortgage, after the mortgagee has received the unenhanced value of the property.
