A Deed of Trust is the most common instrument used to finance real property in Idaho. A Deed of Trust with a power of sale allows for a non-judicial foreclosure, saving time and expense for the lender. A Deed of Trust/Promissory Note that include stringent default terms can be beneficial to the lender. Use these forms for financing real property: vacant land, residential property, rental units, condominiums, small commercial and planned unit developments.
The promissory note is held by the lender and used for reconveyance once the deed of trust has been satisfied, it is considered to be severable and addresses past due dates, late charges, fees for additional days late, maturity dates, traditional finance and balloon payments, default rates, default terms and conditions, etc.

I purchased the Notice of Completion form because the City of Chula Vista did not have a "fillable" version of this form on their website. The Deeds.com version of this form is somewhat different than the City's version (8 numbered paragraphs vs. 11 numbered paragraphs.) However, it contains the same information in a different format. This form provided more blank space to fill in important items- like a long ownership name- than the version on the City's website. The recorder's office was satisfied with this form as I hand-delivered it to the Recorder's Office and they approved it for recording. Overall, I found this form easy to use and found the extra blank space for writing on the form helpful. My one comment for possible improvement is: it would be even more helpful (particularly for attorney users) to have strike-out capability. I would have liked having the ability to strike-out inapplicable portions of long awkward sentences. Still, I would use this form again.
Your feedback means a lot to us. Thank you.

Review: There are 10 PDFs in this warranty deed package. I don't even know what to do with them all. I don't think the directions are clear enough on how to put it all together. I probably won't use it, and feel I have wasted my money.
Sorry to hear that the volume of documents required to complete your task was more than you anticipated. It is rare that we get complaints about providing everything needed. We certainly don't want you to be overwhelmed or feel like you have wasted your money. Your order and payment has been canceled and we do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.
