Questions answered? Let's get started!

A mortgage is a conveyance of title to property that is given as security for a loan until the grantor (borrower) repays the lender according to terms defined in an attached promissory note. It contains a lien against the security property that ends when the debt is repaid.

Use this form for financing real property- residential, rental units, condominiums, vacant land, small commercial and planned unit developments.

Mortgage covenants

Transfer of Rights in the Property. The Mortgagor hereby mortgages to the Mortgagee the Property described in this Mortgage. Mortgagor can lose the Property for failure to keep the promises in this Mortgage.

Applicable Law. Mortgagee shall have all the rights set forth in Section 254 of the New York Real Property Law in addition to Mortgagee's rights set forth in this Mortgage, even if the rights are different from each other.

Non-Judicial Foreclosure. Mortgagee shall have the power of sale under Article 14 of the Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law, as it may be amended from time to time, and under any successor statute or statute of similar impo1t and effect which may subsequently be enacted providing for non-judicial sale of the Property, subject to the requirements and restrictions applicable to such statutory process.

Promissory Note

A promissory note is a negotiable instrument that contains an unconditional written promise, signed by the borrower, to repay the lender or its designated agent. The promissory note also defines the amount and specific terms of the loan between borrower (maker) and lender (payee/holder).
The promissory note is not recorded on its own. Instead, it is presented for recording along with its related deed of trust or mortgage.
A mortgage that includes a power of sale clause and a promissory note that includes stringent default terms can be beneficial to the lender

I AM DELIGHTED TO BE PARTY TO DEEDS.COM. THE PROCESS IS DOWN-TO-EARTH AND VERY USER FRIENDLY. I MUST SAY THAT JUST THE SAVINGS IN TRAVEL TIME AND MONEY IS IN ITSELF VERY REFRESHING. THIS ON LINE PROCESS IS SO CONVENIENT FOR MY OVERALL EFFORT AND OF COURSE FOR OUR CLIENTS AS WELL. I GOT BACKED UP IN RECORDING WHEN THE VIRUS BEGAN RAGING AND PERSONAL VISITS TO LAND RECORDS BECAME A THING OF THE PAST.I FOUND THE SITE WITH A SUGGESTION FROM DC LAND RECORDS' ASSISTANT BY PHONE. I ONLY WISH I'D KNOWN ABOUT THIS AWESOME SERVICE BEFORE 2020. HATS OFF TO DEEDS.COM!

I liked having the forms. Some may need to know they can look at the legal Description from online county records, then type up in Word document line by line, the degree sign in Word program is achieved by using alt and 248 on number pad. Then on the form page one write SEE Exibit A and title your Word program description as Exibit A. Goes without saying the legal description should be looked over many times and it is easier to do so if you format your Word the same lineage as the legal description online which is usually not text which is why you have to retype it.

I sent Deeds.com an email with a question, asking for a little guidance as to which form(s) I need, but I'm waiting for a reply. My wife and I own 3 homes (2 in Indiana & 1 in Florida). We are needing to deed each to ourselves and put them into our living trust. I asked Deeds.com to please help by suggesting which forms I need for this. I do not want to get the wrong ones. I have not received a reply yet. When I receive a helpful reply and am able to purchase the correct forms, I am fairly certain my rating will go from 1 to 5. I withhold judgement until later.

Forms & Guide easy to use. It would have been helpful if the counties with identical form packages were identified. I bought two packages when I could have used one.
