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.

Hopefully, I am on the correct site to transfer ownership of a time share to my son. I am a senior, and this site is easy to follow if I am on the correct site. : )

Your data doesn't go deep enough in time to be useful to me. I needed deeds from 1911 to 1966.

Thank you for your feedback Jan. It does look like staff canceled your order after discussing your needs with you.

I liked the ease of locating the document I needed and the sample document was extremely helpful. I would have liked the acknowledgement to be on the same page as the rest of the document. It costs for each page recorded.

Easy access to forms saving lots of time researching reqmts from a State/Municipal Govt website. I saved 400-500 in lawyer fees but getting these forms, and coordinating with the Property recorders office in another state. Will use you again.

Thank you James. We really appreciate your feedback.

You need to add some short-form mortgages and notes for those who don't want endless clauses which might scare the other party away.

Reply from Staff

Jeffrey, thank you for the feedback. It's worth noting that short-form mortgages generally incorporate the full provisions by reference to a master form or statute, so the underlying terms still apply even though they don't appear in the recorded document. That said, your point about simpler instruments for private and family lending is well taken, and we'll consider options that cover the essential terms more concisely. We appreciate you taking the time to share this.
