("Deed of trust" means a deed conveying real property in trust to secure the performance of an obligation of the grantor or any other person named in the deed to a beneficiary and conferring upon the trustee a power of sale for breach of an obligation of the grantor contained in the deed of trust;) (Ark. Statute 18-50-101(2)) A power of sale allows for a non-judicial foreclosure in the case of default, saving time and expense. If Lender invokes the power of sale, Lender shall execute or cause Trustee to execute the written notice of the occurrence of any event of default and Lender's election to cause the Property to be sold and shall cause such notice to be recorded in each county in which the Property or some portion thereof is located. Lender or Trustee shall mail copies of such notice in the manner prescribed by applicable law. 18-50-103.
(A trustee may not sell the trust property unless: The deed of trust or mortgage is filed for record with the recorder of the county in which the trust property is situated;) (Ark. Statute 18-50-103(1))

THIS FORM IS CONSISTENT WITH INVESTOR OR OWNER FINANCING.
