@Jerome MorelosIt will be similar to what you sign with a bank, there will be a note (which is the iou which states how much you can borrow and at what terms and length)Then there will be a deed in trust (assuming California) which is a recorded document that uses the property as security.

I actually converted the usable ones to propane and secured a board blocking the chimney in the ones that will never be chimney safe. 

@Arnella IrbyGet an attorney to sue and get a judgment against this personLesson learned any type of jv agreement if you are giving money you also secure it against the property

You could make up an assignment, not record it, and send it to the person to hold to secure the loan, but if they recorded it, you would be screwed.

Central and walkable but also nice and secure! 

This deal was sourced through our extensive network, allowing us to secure it at an attractive price.

Do I have to return his security deposit?

How are people holding security deposits in NC?

How do I secure liability against my other assets.

I’ve heard that some platforms offer features like automated payment tracking and secure document storage.
