There are a number of ways in which investors can invest their money, the stock market, savings bonds, deeds of trust, to name but a few. There is always some degree of risk involved when making an investment, however, trust deeds happen to be one of the safest investments to make in today’s market.

Unlike other investments, trust deeds enjoy the following secure advantages: 1) a trust deed is secured by actual property – homes, buildings and land; 2) the investor receives higher than average rates of return due to the fact that borrowers are willing to pay a higher interest rate because private investors are flexible with their loans; and 3) borrowers are generally a good risk to take because if the borrower fails to pay the loan they could lose their property and the loan amount is exceeded by the real property value.

There are many advantages that investing in trust deeds offers you as an investor:

1.      The interest rate paid by the borrower is typically higher than rates paid by banks.
2.      Investing in a deed of trust generates a monthly income that is established through interest payments.
