MAKE YOUR FREE Mortgage Deed
What is a Mortgage Deed?
The benefit of Mortgage Deeds is that they give both parties get a sense of security regarding the terms of the arrangement. If you're a borrower, a mortgage deed form allows you to put up your property as collateral in exchange for a loan and helps you protect your legal rights and responsibilities if you're taking out a mortgage on your house, or maybe you're lending someone money and want some security on the loan. They also give the lender an interest in the property as a guarantee of the debt, with rights to the property until the mortgage amount is completely paid off.
Mortgage Deeds usually include details like: the property's physical address and a legal description; the mortgage amount; when the deed goes into effect; whether the lender, the borrower, or a third party is creating the mortgage deed form; whether the parties are individuals, married couples, businesses, or trusts; the contact information of both parties; and where each party will sign the deed.
Note: Not all states recognize a Mortgage Deed or Mortgage Agreement. If you live in these states, use a Deed of Trust instead: Alaska, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, or Wyoming.
When to use a Mortgage Deed:
- You are loaning money to another person or business and want to hold an interest in certain property they own as security until they repay their debt.
- You are borrowing money and want to offer property you currently own as security to the lender that you will repay the debt in full or they can take claim on the property.
