FAQ
Example: When used in a real estate transaction, the promissory note covers the promise to repay the amount owed, interest, and maturity date — while the deed of trust or mortgage outlines the other responsibilities of the parties involved more precisely.
The property that secures a note is called collateral, which can be either real estate or personal property. A promissory note secured by collateral will need a second document. If the collateral is real property, there will be either a mortgage or a deed of trust.
In the United States, the Internal Revenue Service governs the taxation aspects of promissory notes. Specifically, the interest income received from a promissory note is taxable and should be reported, whereas the principal amount usually does not have tax implications unless the note is forgiven or canceled.
An assignment in a deed of trust is a legal transfer of the lender's interest in the security instrument (the deed of trust) to a new party (the assignee). The assignor (current lender) transfers all rights, title, and interest in the deed of trust to the assignee, who becomes the new lender of record.
DO THE NOTES NEED TO BE REGISTERED? Most promissory notes must be registered as securities with the SEC and the states in which they're being sold. But remember that some promissory notes, such as those that have nine-month or shorter terms, may be “exempt.” That means that they don't have to be registered.
Additionally, although those selling them might not know or admit it, promissory notes are usually securities and must be registered with the SEC or the state in which they're sold—or they must have a specific exemption from registration under the law.
Unlike a deed of trust or mortgage, the promissory note is typically not recorded in the county land records (except in a few states like Florida). Instead, the lender holds on to this document until the amount borrowed is repaid.
