Difference Between a Lost Note and Deed of Trust
A promissory note and a deed of trust serve as key documents in real estate transactions. A promissory note is an agreement that you (borrower) promise to repay the loan while the deed of trust is a document that secures the loan with real estate as collateral.
When either of these documents is lost, misplaced, or destroyed, the title company or lender that issued you the loan may require you to secure a surety bond to proceed with the transaction.
