There are three parties in a Trust Deed in which the Grantor/Borrower (conveys an interest in real property to a trustee in trust to secure the performance of an obligation the grantor or other person named in the deed owes to a beneficiary.) (ORS 86.705(8))

("Grantor" means the person that conveys an interest in real property by a trust deed as security for the performance of an obligation.) ( ORS 86.705(4))
("Beneficiary")/ Lender (means a person named or otherwise designated in a trust deed as the person for whose benefit a trust deed is given, or the person's successor in interest, and who is not the trustee unless the beneficiary is qualified to be a trustee under ORS 86.713) ( ORS 86.705(2))
("Trustee" means a person, other than the beneficiary, to whom a trust deed conveys an interest in real property, or the person's successor in interest, or an employee of the beneficiary, if the employee is qualified to be a trustee under ORS 86.713) ( ORS 86.705(9)) The guidelines provided explain how to easily choose a trustee.

Trust Deeds are considered advantageous for lenders, foreclosure is done non-judicially (saving time and expense), the process is called "Foreclosure by Advertisement and Sale" defined in ORS 86.735. If the Grantor/Borrower defaults the Beneficiary/Lender can choose to have the Trustee foreclose on the Trust Deed.

This Trust Deed and Promissory Note contain strong default terms. Use these forms for residential property, rental property (up to 4 units), vacant land, condominiums, and planned unit developments.

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!

The release of mortgage form was OK, and accepted at the recorder's office, but there were some problems. Many of the fields to type in were too small to accept the data, and I could not find a way to change the field size or use a smaller font. Otherwise I was satisfied.

Thank you for your service. It seems to have worked, I printed a document purporting to be the Deed I needed. I was somewhat disappointed though - I was expecting something as impressive as the Title Search, which goes back to 1828 and includes Millard Fillmore, admittedly not one of our most celebrated Presidents. But I am happy to have what I have, and thank you again!

The forms are nice; however, they do not display the "th" after the day or the second digit of the year. You can type them in, but they will not print out. I just left them blank and will handwrite.

Easy to download and use the forms, however two forms needed for my county recording were not included.

Reply from Staff

Thank you for your feedback Frank. We'll look into finding and including the additional supplemental documents. Sometimes supplemental documents have to be generated by the county's system, specific to the transaction.
