Ok lets take a step back and please dont take this the wrong way or think I am being condescending however here is how loans go.1. you have the borrower  who I guess was introduced to you and is on BP and talks about doing JV s and deals etc.. 2. you agree to lend money on one of his/her projects.3. you identify the property and the amount your willing to loan.4. your borrower will open escrow so you get a lenders policy of title insurane and insure your docs are recorded correctly.. most will prep the mortgage or Trust deed but most will not prep the note they will want an attorney to do that.. 5.
