How it works

From origination to the closing table

We find the borrower, underwrite the loan and get it to the closing table. You decide which loans fit your goals, and your funds go through a licensed title or escrow company.

We originate & underwrite

Borrower credit, experience and liquidity, the property's value and the exit plan are reviewed before a loan is listed.

You review the opportunity

See the metrics here, then request the due diligence package: valuation, title, photos, budget and the borrower's track record.

You wire funds to escrow

Escrow collects the funds, records the deed of trust or assignment and disburses only when every closing condition is met.

You collect interest

A loan servicer collects the payments and sends you your interest monthly. Principal is repaid at payoff or refinance.

Fund the loan

For private lenders, debt funds and family offices that want to be lender of record.

  • Your money closes the loan; the note and deed of trust are made out to you or your IRA
  • Lender's title policy and hazard insurance name you as lender
  • Best for investors who want to set or approve terms up front

Buy the note

For accredited note investors who want a loan that has already closed.

  • The note and deed of trust are assigned to you, and the assignment is recorded
  • Payment history is available from day one
  • Proof of liquidity is required before we share a note's details
The basics

What is trust deed investing?

When you invest in a deed of trust, you're the lender. A real estate investor borrows to buy, renovate, build or refinance a property, signs a promissory note, and a deed of trust (or mortgage) is recorded against the property. The real estate is your collateral, and the loan-to-value ratio is your equity cushion: at 65% LTV, the property would have to lose more than a third of its value before your principal was at risk.

Protecting investors and the deal

How each loan is protected

Recorded lien

A deed of trust or recorded assignment secures your position against the property.

Lender's title insurance

Insures that your lien has the priority you expect.

Hazard insurance

The borrower's policy lists the lender as mortgagee or loss payee.

Independent valuation

An appraisal or broker price opinion supports each loan-to-value.

Escrow-controlled funds

Investor funds go to title or escrow, never to us, and are released only at closing.

Verified investors

Note details are released only after proof of liquidity and a signed confidentiality and non-circumvention agreement.

Questions

Trust deed & private mortgage investing FAQ

What does it mean to invest in a deed of trust?

You fund, or buy, a loan made to a real estate investor. The borrower signs a promissory note, and a deed of trust (called a mortgage in some states) is recorded against the property as security. You receive the interest payments, and if the borrower doesn't repay, the property can be foreclosed on to recover your principal.

What's the difference between a deed of trust and a mortgage?

Both secure a loan with real estate. A deed of trust adds a neutral trustee who can sell the property through a non-judicial foreclosure if the loan defaults, which is usually faster than the court process many mortgage states use. Texas, California, Arizona and many other states use deeds of trust.

Fund the loan or buy the note: what's the difference?

Funding the loan means your money closes the loan: you are the lender of record and the deed of trust is recorded in your name (or your IRA's) at closing. Buying the note means you purchase a loan that has already closed, and the note and deed of trust are assigned to you. Each listing shows which it is.

Who can invest?

Note purchases are offered to accredited investors. Private lenders, debt funds and family offices can fund loans directly. Before we share the details of a note, we ask for proof of liquidity and agreement to our confidentiality and non-circumvention terms.

Where do my funds go?

Never to us. You wire funds to the title or escrow company handling the closing. Escrow records the deed of trust or the assignment in your name and disburses the funds.

Can I use a self-directed IRA or Solo 401(k)?

Yes, in most cases. The note and deed of trust are vested in your account's name (for example, "ABC Trust Company FBO Jane Smith IRA"), and payments go back to the account. Talk to your custodian about their process and timing before you commit.

Who collects the payments?

Loans are serviced by a licensed third-party loan servicer or as agreed in the closing documents. The servicer collects monthly payments, sends you your share, tracks taxes and insurance, and issues year-end tax forms.

What happens if the borrower defaults?

The servicer sends notices and works toward a cure. If the default isn't cured, the lender can foreclose and take title or be paid from a sale. Timelines and costs vary by state, and lower loan-to-value gives you a larger equity cushion if this happens.

What are the risks?

Borrowers can default, values can fall, foreclosure takes time and money, and your money is not easily withdrawn before the loan pays off. These investments are not FDIC-insured, and past results don't guarantee future returns. Review each due diligence package with your own advisors.
