"A trust deed is not a mortgage-backed vehicle..."

This paragraph appears to be incorrect, but I wanted to see if anyone cares to explain it before I remove it. From a business/financial perspective, a deed of trust is identical to a mortgage. It has no special financial status, and no particular reason to be more attractive to a company seeking financing than a mortgage. The difference between the two is solely in the way that the lien is perfected against the property's title.

"A trust deed is not a mortgage-backed vehicle..."

When a borrower signs a promissory note, he uses either a mortage or a trust deed to pledge the property being purchased as collateral for the loan in the event of default. In mortgage states, the promissory note is secured by a mortgage given to the mortgagee, so, you might say the promissory note is "mortgage-backed"

In deed of trust states, the deed of trust is the security instrument that pledges the property being purchased as collateral for the loan, and, also physically transfers title to the property to a trustee who, in the event of default, has the power to sell the property to satisfy the loan when so directed by the lender. In this instance, you could say the promissory note is backed by a deed of trust, but, I don't see a situation where the deed of trust is backed by a mortgage.

In this context, then, I tend to agree with the statement, "A trust deed is not a mortgage-backed vehicle...". —Preceding unsigned comment added by David Toelkes (talk • contribs) 20:10, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

What a mess

The article should be starting with the MOST important aspect of a trust deed as distinguished from a mortgage, its three-party nature versus the two-party nature of the mortgage. --Coolcaesar (talk) 09:10, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Title is wrong, the correct term is "deed of trust"

My understanding is that the majority of states consistently use the term "deed of trust" for this type of conveyancing instrument, NEVER trust deed, so as to distinguish it from deeds used to create actual trusts. If no one objects, I'm going to move this to the correct term "deed of trust" in a few weeks. --Coolcaesar (talk) 05:22, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

I would strongly agree with you on this point. "Trust Deed" is ambiguous and could be confused with a deed into/out of a trust. I examine titles nationwide, and have never seen a security instrument of this nature referred to as a "Trust Deed." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.67.116.11 (talk) 23:29, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I'm moving this. --Coolcaesar (talk) 07:33, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Equitable title vs legal title

I don't think this is correct in the first paragraph: "a deed of trust or trust deed is a deed wherein equitable title in real property is transferred to a trustee, which holds it as security for a loan (debt) between a borrower and lender. The legal title remains with the borrower." It's the opposite: equitable title gives the borrower the right to possess and live on the property, and the trustee retains legal title. Also the mortgage and the deed of trust are different, but how they're used depends on the state and state laws. Sometimes it creates a lien, more often it doesn't, usually it allows a non-judicial foreclosure due to the power of sale clause and the fact that the trustee holds the legal title.
