Here are a few quick reasons why you should take control of your investment portfolio and invest in Trust Deed Capital’s notes: ### **1st Trust Deeds Only** ****As one of our investors, you’ll have the first position and be the only holder of the note. Each trust deed is recorded in your name. ### **Equity** Trust Deed Capital’s loan programs do not exceed 60% LTV of the value of the property securing the loan. We strive to have rented properties that more than cover the monthly payment. ### **Money Down** Our trusted real estate investors will either have personal funds, or a spread of equity in the transaction serving as their personal guarantee. Along with commitment that the trust deed payment is a priority.   ### **Non-Owner Occupied Properties Only** Trust Deed Capital only brokers loans for non-owner occupied single-family homes, and units (1-4) to our trusted professional California real estate investors. ### **No Pooling of Funds** Trust Deed Capital does not pool funds, giving our investors more control over their investment.     [![Click me](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/115318/13a21299-97d3-43d6-9574-ef3822d48c94.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/115318/13a21299-97d3-43d6-9574-ef3822d48c94) ### Have Questions?
