In a Deed of Trust, the trustee is an independent third party who holds conditional title on behalf of the lender for the purpose of either reconveying the property back to the borrower after the loan is repaid or selling the property if the borrower defaults on the loan. Trustee's can be replaced for many reasons, incapacity, incompetency, death, etc. Often a lender will substitute a trustee with a firm or corporation that will be conducting a foreclosure.
NCG 45-10. States:
In addition to the rights and remedies now provided by law, the noteholders may, in their discretion, substitute a trustee whether the trustee then named in the instrument is the original or a substituted trustee or a holder or owner of any or all of the obligations secured thereby, by the execution of a written document properly recorded pursuant to Chapter 47
This form is executed by the beneficiary/lender for the substitution of a trustee, it includes an optional foreclosure clause if needed for that purpose.

I was able to easily navigate the interface and purchase the forms that I needed. I was then able to prepare the forms with assistance from the reference documents provided with the deed. This was simple, easy, and user friendly. Great job!

Got the forms I needed after getting forms for the wrong county and paying twice. My bad!
Thanks for your feedback! Just to clarify—when an order is placed for the wrong county, we’re happy to help. In this case, we canceled the original order and refunded the payment so there was no duplicate charge. Glad you got the correct forms in the end!

Great site with great info. Almost made the job seamless but form would not adjust to my longer than usual legal description -- I ended up having to recreate the form in word processing software (Libre). But could not have done it without the guidelines.
Thank you!
