Plain-English Law
Trust Deed as defined by Nolo’s Encyclopedia of Everyday Law (p. 437-455):
The most common method of financing real estate purchases in California (most other states use mortgages). The trust deed transfers title to the property to a trustee often a title company which holds it as security for a loan. When the loan is paid off, the title is transferred to the borrower.
Practical Information
Note: Some of this information was last updated in 1982
An agreement (sometimes called “trust agreement” or “trust indenture”) between a corporation and a trustee who serves as a “guardian” of bondholders’ interests. It sets forth all the terms and conditions of a bond issue, and the rights, powers, and duties of the parties to the bond issue (in U.S. law). These parties are the corporation that borrows the money, the trustee through whom the corporation deals with the bondholders, and the bondholders. The bond and the deed of trust constitute the bondholders’ contract with the corporation. See also indenture (in U.S. law); corporate mortgage bond (in U.S. law); deed of trust (in U.S. law).
