("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))
A deed of trust contains three (3) parties: Grantor/Trustor, Trustee, and Beneficiary/Lender
"Grantor" means the person conveying an interest in real property by a mortgage or deed of trust as security for the performance of an obligation; (Ark. Statute 18-50-101 (3))
"Beneficiary" means the person named or otherwise designated in a deed of trust as the person for whose benefit a deed of trust is given or his successor in interest; (Ark. Statute 18-50-101 (1))
("Trustee" means any person or legal entity to whom legal title to real property is conveyed by deed of trust or his or her successor in interest.) Examples of how a Trustee can be chosen are given. (Ark. Statute 18-50-101 (10)).
14-15-402. Instruments to be recorded. (a) It shall be the duty of each recorder to record in the books provided for his or her office all deeds, mortgages, conveyances, deeds of trust, bonds, covenants, defeasances, affidavits, powers of attorney, assignments, contracts, agreements, leases, or other instruments of writing of, or writing concerning, any lands and tenements or goods and chattels, which shall be proved or acknowledged according to law, that are authorized to be recorded in his or her office.
THIS DEED OF TRUST DIFFERS IN THAT IT ALLOWS THE LENDER TO COLLECT TAXES AND INSURANCE PAYMENTS MONTHLY. THIS GIVES THE LENDER MORE CONTROL, FOR EXAMPLE: A LENDER MIGHT NOT REALIZE TAXES AND/OR INSURANCE PAYMENTS ARE IN ARREARS UNTIL SIX (6) MONTHS AFTER DELINQUENCY. THIS FORM IS CONSISTENT WITH INVESTOR OR OWNER FINANCING.
Funds for Taxes and Insurance: Subject to applicable law or a written waiver by Lender, Borrower shall pay to lender on the day monthly payments of principal and interest are payable under the Note, until the Note is paid in full, a sum ("Funds") equal to one twelfth (1/12) of the yearly taxes and assessments which may attain priority over this Deed of Trust, and ground rents on the Property, if any, plus one twelfth (1/12) of yearly premium installments of hazard insurance, plus one twelfth (1/12) of yearly premium installments for mortgage insurance, if any, all as reasonably estimated initially and from time to time by Lender on the basis of assessments and bills and reasonable estimates thereof.
For use in Arkansas only.

The form I needed was correct and paginated as required. It was accepted w/o penalties. I was not happy about the information which I found way too scant. One sample form does not cover enough possibilities, more would be helpful. The instruction page is a bit better but sometimes it is not clear enough - sometimes it is not clear what the numbered items in the form correspond to. There is no guidance about the process and it would take very little to provide it. Example about "description", say where to find. There is a bunch of "free forms" attached but no guide on which are needed and when. Example: at the counter I was given a paper "conveyance" form and asked to fill it - I did not know it was needed and what it did and so I had not d

This is the first time that I have used this service. An employee at the Clerk and Register office in Arizona suggested that I try Deeds.com to find the form I needed and the county office could not provide. I am a licensed Realtor in Colorado with a 43-year career and this service has not been necessary in my own state but it was extremely helpful in finding a form in Arizona. Five star rating for the very user-friendly website!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Customer service was poor. I felt like I had to debate the representative to provide guidance and assistance. They acted as though I knew the process, the documents involved, etc. At the same time, they asked me to confirm which documents or at least pages needed to be filed. I was leaning of Deeds.com for their expertise.
Thank you!
