The underlying instrument in a Contract for Deed (rent to own) is a loan, and as far as I can tell it is automatically covered under the SAFE act.

Don't be nervous about going to an REI meeting..We all have to start somewhere..You'll probably meet very positive experienced people who will be helpful and maybe even instrumental in your decision making..Nothing to be nervous about...and don't spend any money yet!!

If my friends had not told me the untruths about short sales I would have never dug as deep and learned about notes and security instruments etc.

If "broker" is a regulated title in Maryland, and you're not licensed, there is some state agency that will have you in their sights.Notes, being financial instruments are even more heavily regulated than real estate.

And it certainly doesn't border on illegal or unethical in any way.In fact, contract assignment is a very common legal instrument both in real estate and outside of real estate.To think that a government agency could stop assignment from happening just seems crazy to me...So, is this illegal in PA?

When that is the case, this title company is tight with the lender's side of things, and it will probably get their attention (and through them, the lender's) if the "all cash" transaction requires recording of an instrument for financing too.

Generally, put options and call options are financial instruments affiliated with or derived from other financial instruments (stock or bonds).Call options allow the owner of the call to buy a stock at a predetermined price within a certain period.Put options allow the owner of the call to sell a stock at a predetermined price within a certain period.I buy a call on Microsoft which is currently trading at $25 per share.

Read all of the real estate text and then look to contracts and financial instruments in the basic B.Law text.

What do I need to be looking for as far as instrument type, grantor, grantee, book type, etc?

Or do you mean the promissory note as well as the original security instrument?
