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.

I was very glad to have this option for filing a form as it would have taken 4 days due to offices being closed to the public during the COVID 19 epidemic. I found the process to be fairly simple and I was able to file the document within 24 hours.

If I hadn't spent my career as an escrow officer (albeit in another state), I may have had a hard time figuring out exactly which deed I needed and how to prepare them, even with the back-up informational, how-to pdf documents, without an attorney. My experience speaks to how much the general public doesn't understand and how confusing it can be. Nonetheless, the access to so many documents at a fairly reasonable cost, the basic how-to docs made available along with the purchased doc makes all the difference. I appreciate having such things available to the public. Many thanks.

I got the right form but I waited too long to use it and Oregon changed the formatting. I should have checked and made sure the form was still good. Deeds responded quickly.

Promissory note guidelines instruction No. 1 has misspelled Principle [sic]. Promissory note blank form number 1(c) the formatting of the P&I payment is not correct.

Reply from Staff

Thank you for pointing this out, Paul. We appreciate the careful feedback and will review the instruction typo and the formatting issue in section 1(c) so they can be corrected where needed.

I filled out the Xfer on Death Deed and turned it in to the County Recorder - everything went well. I did NOT like the Huge Print over like a stamp of "DEEDS.COM" on some of the material - it just made it hard to read.

I filled out the Kansas form and presented it to the Clerk of Deeds in Rawlins Co and there were no problems and no expensive attorney involved for a simple transaction.

Deeds.com did such a wonderful job that I had to leave a positive review. I did a deed retrieval and ran across some hiccups. Deeds.com was able to help me get my deed and even went beyond to help me have a more in depth understanding of it's title history. They responded quickly to all my messages. Great customer service. Definitely recommend! Thank you Deeds.com and thank you KVH.
