In many ways, trust deed products offer a much lower risk and higher return than many conventional-style investments (stock market products).  Unlike a mutual fund, CD, or traditional market investment which are likely to yield smaller returns, the standard trust deed will generate a 10-13% interest rate.  Additionally, the dissolution of the subprime market has brought an even larger pool of qualified properties into the trust deed arena. Uncertainty and volatility in today’s financial markets has investors looking to a safer alternative for their capital— the trust deed products.

• Equity in the property:  Loan to Value ratio 65% and below (LTV)

Property Valuation

Tri-Point limits lending to a maximum of 65% of the value of the collateral property.  This would ensure a minimum of 35% equity in the property.  Tri-Point will only offer products with an LTV between 30-65%.

Obviously, the value of a property securing a trust deed investment is of critical importance.  Tri-Point determines property valuation through research, comparable analysis, and if necessary, a certified home appraiser.
