In Nebraska, a Deed of Trust is the most commonly used instrument to secure a loan. Foreclosure can be done non-judicially, saving time and expense. This process is called a Trustee Sale. There is no automatic stay of a trustee's sale under the Nebraska Trust Deeds Act, whereas in a typical judicial foreclosure a borrower would be entitled to a stay of the sheriff's sale for anywhere from three to nine months depending upon the maturity date of the real estate mortgage
There are three parties in this Deed of Trust:
1- The Trustor (Borrower)
2- Beneficiary (Lender) and a
3- Trustee (Neutral Third Party)
76-1003. Trustee; qualification.
(1) The trustee of a trust deed shall be:
(a) A member of the Nebraska State Bar Association or a licensed real estate broker of Nebraska;
(b) Any bank, building and loan association, savings and loan association, or credit union authorized to do business in Nebraska under the laws of Nebraska or the United States or an agency of the United States Department of Agriculture involved in lending;
(c) Any corporation authorized to conduct a trust business in Nebraska under the laws of Nebraska or the United States; or
(d) Any title insurer authorized to do business in Nebraska under the laws of Nebraska.
(2) The trustee of a trust deed shall not be the beneficiary named in the trust deed unless the beneficiary is qualified to be a trustee under subdivision (1)(b) or (c) of this section.
Basic Concept. The Trustor (Borrower) conveys property title to a Trustee (Neutral Party). A Trustee or beneficiary can take an action against any person for damages. Use this Deed of Trust for financing vacant land, residential property, small commercial property, rental property (up to 4 units), condominiums and planned unit developments.
(Nebraska DOT Package includes forms, guidelines, and completed examples) For use in Nebraska only.

World class forms, great for someone like me that has no clue what I'm doing! Always better to let the pros do it than think one knows it all and gets themselves in trouble!

I would appreciate being able to increase the size of the blocks such as the Grantor block and the legal description block where information is enter on the form and to adjust the font. Otherwise great product,
Thank you for your feedback Michael. We do wish we could make that an option. Unfortunately, adhering to formatting requirements (specifically margin requirements) leaves a finite amount of space available on the page.

Very easy and I appreciate that when you hover over the blank, directions pop up and tell you what to put in that blank. I also appreciated that when I lost the original password, I sent an email and Deeds.com cancelled my order, refunded my account, so that I could start over.
It was a pleasure serving you. Thank you for the positive feedback!

Easy to follow directions and instructions to properly and legally fill-in the Deed that I requested. It was also very easy and convenient. If I was going to employ an Attorney or Legal Documents Preparer, they would easily charge me between $150 to $225 a Deed! For the cost of $19.97, anyone would pursue this price! Thank you, Deeds.com for a wonderful and terrific experience! I'm going to need you again to change Titles for my other Investment Properties.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
