Questions answered? Let's get started!

New Mexico has the Deed of Trust Act.
Foreclosure can be done non-judicially, saving time and expense. This process is called a Trustee Sale. After the Trustee sale the borrower has a right to redeem the property. This form allows one-month vs nine-months.
NM Statute 48-10-16(A)
Except as otherwise provided in Subsection E of this section, the redemption period after a trustee's sale shall be nine months, or the period provided in the deed of trust, whichever is the lesser period, and shall begin to run from the date of the trustee's sale. In the deed of trust, the parties may shorten the redemption period to not less than one month.

There are three parties in this Deed of Trust:
1- The Grantor (Borrower)
2- Beneficiary (Lender) and a
3- Trustee (Neutral Third Party)
Basic Concept. The Grantor (Borrower) conveys property title to a Trustee (Neutral Party). A Trustee or beneficiary can take an action against any person for damages.

Use this form for financing residential property, small commercial, rental property (up to 4 units), condominiums and planned unit developments. A Deed of Trust and Promissory Note with stringent default terms/conditions can be beneficial to the lender, mostly used by investors or parties selling and/or financing a real property.

Bought a transfer on death deed form and it worked great. Easy to fill out and record with the County. Got some helpful information from the county recorders office before filling out the form. I found out that I could use one deed for 2 properties. Saved me money not having to pay fees for 2 deeds.

I found a lot of useful information regarding the Lady Bird Deed and feel it will serve my needs as opposed to a Revocable Living Trust. The information was easy to understand and very helpful. The forms seem easy to complete and I plan to get them notarized and filed at the courthouse very soon.
