Smart investors pad their retirement accounts with Trust deed investments because they normally earn 10%-15% annually on their investment! If this is all new to you I bet you're wondering, "Exactly what is trust deed investing?" I'm glad you asked. Trust Deed investing is the loaning of money with real estate as collateral. In California, most loans against Real Estate are called "Trust Deeds," after the name of the legal instrument used to pledge their security. The Lazy Guy's Investment With expert guidance , anyone can successfully invest in trust deeds. This contrasts with most other investments where extensive study and years of experience may be necessary before you can invest with confidence. Trust Deeds are safer than most other investments of comparable yield because the risks are identifiable, as well as the procedures necessary to counter those risks. Many investors, especially retired people, also enjoy the relatively minor effort needed to manage the investment once their money is in place.
The typical trust deed investor is a person looking for a competitive return on their investment. The interest rate the borrower pays is generally higher than the borrower would pay at a bank. The investor in turn, receives a higher return on his investment. Additionally, the money you loan is secured by the borrowers' equity in their real estate. The security, the good return, plus the monthly cash flow, make trust deeds and excellent investment vehicle. A note broker like NXT Equities, receives calls from borrowers, realtors and mortgage professionals who are looking for private money for a real estate transaction. It is the broker's job to fund loans with their investor's investments. After the loan is in place some brokers will do the servicing. That means they will collect the payment each month, and send you check for your return on investment. The More Equity, The More Safety The basic premise of safe trust deed investing is to make sure that the equity in the property(collateral) is sufficient in case the borrower does not make their payment, and you have to foreclosure. Although this is rare, it does happen. You will have a healthy safety net if you only lend on low loan to value properties. Loan to value is simply the loan amount divided into the value of the property. Here is an example: A client calls and needs a loan for $100,000 on a property valued at $300,000. In this scenario, the loan to value is 30%. That means that if the borrower were to default on their payments and you were forced to foreclose you would have approximately $200,000 of equity to pay costs and return you investment with profit. It's that safety cushion that makes trust deed investing so attractive to both experienced and new investors.
