("Mortgage loan" means a loan secured primarily by a lien against real estate.) Use these forms to finance real property; residential property, vacant land, rental units, condominiums, commercial and planned unit developments. (V.S.A. 2101(13) Definitions)

This mortgage contains a power of sale clause pursuant to the provisions of 12 V.S.A. Chapter 172, which allows for a non-judicial foreclosure when applicable, saving time and expense for the lender. A non-judicial foreclosure generally applies to any real property except for a dwelling house of two units or less, that is occupied by the owner as a principal residence, or farmland. If a non-judicial foreclosure is NOT applicable this form allows for a judicial foreclosure.

The debt is evidenced by the Promissory Note that is governed by the State of Vermont. A Mortgage and Promissory Note with stringent default terms and conditions can be beneficial to the lender.

Vermont is a "notice" state. Delivery of a mortgage instrument of real property constitutes constructive notice as of the time it is recorded.

Sorry that this a little late. I'm VERY HAPPY with everything. The deeds paperwork was just what I was looking for. It was very to fill out, it was different than n the folks used years ago. I called the county clerk, and they were very helpful. Thank you for the paperwork it was easy to use and understand.

I love how quick the turnaround is, my only request would be for an email notification be sent once an invoice is ready and then once a document is recorded and ready to download (only because I have a large caseload and it's very easy to forget things sometimes).

I was informed that a quit Claim Deed that I had submitted, did not meet county requirements. I ordered the correct form and was surprised that the form included instructions and a sample "completed" form for me to follow. I found it al very helpful. Thank you !!!

Easy, but it would be nice if there was an option for font size. It looks tiny, like 6 or 8.

The forms that I downloaded from Deeds were perfect for what I needed. I even checked with a lawyer to see if the papers would work and she said yes.

Thanks Amie, have a great day!

I used your TOD document to deed my home to my daughter. Your sample document was very helpful. I had to do it a few times but finally got it right. I didn't check but It was surely cheaper than a lawyer fee.

The forms, and other information, are all excellent.rnI would be giving a 5-star review if it were not for the fact that downloading a "bundle" about quitclaim deeds required I download every single file independently (15 files). I would far prefer a zip file, or one click to download the whole pile of independent files.
