Questions answered? Let's get started!
1. Borrower/Obligor 2. Debtor/Original Lender 3. Secured Party(SP)/3rd Party/New Lender
This form assigns the current Debtors/lenders security interest in a promissory note backed by a previously recorded Deed of Trust Lien, with all rights, titles, equities and interest securing the same as described in that certain Deed of Trust. This collateral is assigned to a Secured Party to protect a Security Agreement made between the Debtor and Secured Party. A collateral assignment is a pledge that the Debtor will pay the Secured Party as agreed. Debtor authorizes Secured Party, at Secured Party's option, to collect any and all sums becoming due upon the Collateral, such sums to be held by Secured Party without liability for interest thereon and applied toward the payment of the Obligations as and when the same becomes payable, and Secured Party shall have the full control of the Collateral and the Deed of Trust Lien securing the same until the Obligations are fully paid and shall have the further right to release the Deed of Trust Lien securing the Collateral upon the full and final payment to Secured Party.
Typically used by Private Lenders/Debtors to borrow money on a property that they financed by a Deed of Trust Lien and Promissory Note.

Download was easy to complete, but difficult to revisit site to review purchased forms on line. Suggest you download everything at one sitting to make sure you get everything you need from your purchase.

After a little glitch due to heavy volume at the County Recorder, my document was recorded. County Recorder was closed to public access at the office (due to the coronavirus issues) so all documents were either mailed to them or sent in electronically. Deeds.com was very efficient at their end with very quick responses to my questions and concerns. I would definitely use their services again.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
