German term or phrase: von seinem Valutabetrag
From a contract for the sale of land:

Der Grundpfandrechtsgläubiger darf das Grundpfandrecht nur insoweit als Sicherheit verwerten oder behalten, als er tatsächlich _von seinem Valutabetrag_ Zahlungen mit Tilgungswirkung auf die Kaufpreisschuld des Käufers geleistet hat.

of his established equity
Explanation:
In this context "valuta" refers to the value, or rather the equity, established in the land. Only the percentage of the land already paid off may be used as a security for other purposes. In case of a mortgage type of payment arrangement, this would only be the amount of the principal that has already been paid off.
