- The trust deed process involves the borrower/trustor conveying title from the borrower/trustor to the third-party trustee who holds title for the lender/beneficiary.

- In order to qualify for a mortgage, borrowers must have a steady income and a low debt-to-income ratio.
- There are a variety of mortgage types, based on the borrower's credit history and the property being purchased.
