There are three parties in a Trust Deed in which the Grantor/Borrower (conveys an interest in real property to a trustee in trust to secure the performance of an obligation the grantor or other person named in the deed owes to a beneficiary.) (ORS 86.705(8))

("Grantor" means the person that conveys an interest in real property by a trust deed as security for the performance of an obligation.) ( ORS 86.705(4))
("Beneficiary")/ Lender (means a person named or otherwise designated in a trust deed as the person for whose benefit a trust deed is given, or the person's successor in interest, and who is not the trustee unless the beneficiary is qualified to be a trustee under ORS 86.713) ( ORS 86.705(2))
("Trustee" means a person, other than the beneficiary, to whom a trust deed conveys an interest in real property, or the person's successor in interest, or an employee of the beneficiary, if the employee is qualified to be a trustee under ORS 86.713) ( ORS 86.705(9)) The guidelines provided explain how to easily choose a trustee.

Trust Deeds are considered advantageous for lenders, foreclosure is done non-judicially (saving time and expense), the process is called "Foreclosure by Advertisement and Sale" defined in ORS 86.735. If the Grantor/Borrower defaults the Beneficiary/Lender can choose to have the Trustee foreclose on the Trust Deed.

This Trust Deed and Promissory Note contain strong default terms. Use these forms for residential property, rental property (up to 4 units), vacant land, condominiums, and planned unit developments.

(Oregon TD Package includes forms, guidelines, and completed examples) For use in Oregon only.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.

Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

loved the ease of use for the forms.
went on line to find out about Adobe Reader, too. Had a test to see if I had it. Took few seconds. Then on to ordering and downloading which took only 5 minutes for the three forms I wanted.
Thanks, Katie Anderson

Came with all the paperwork that I needed plus a lot more paperwork than what I needed. Covered all the bases! The instructions were a big help. Easy fill in the blanks. Had no problem filing the paperwork afterword at the County Clerks office. Definitely worth the $20.

The deed form is hard to fill in. There is no way to fill in the county in the "reviewed by" section. Also, there is no place for the Grantee's address on the form. I had to include it in the fill-in space for the legal description.

I'm transferring a property into a trust and ordered the QuitClaim Deed. Everything was pretty straight forward and user friendly. However, the Additional Information/Instructions for the Preliminary Change of Ownership Report skips from Section "I" to "M" and does not address "K". It would have been very helpful to have an explanation of the difference between the three options in that section. Thank you.

Amazing service. Immediate responses at all hours of the day and prevent late in the evening! Patient and friendly. I will say that Adobe scan did not work well for me. Notes app for IOS has a scan feature and that seemed to work best.
