<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all - <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">A while back I think I saw some discussion on the proper procedures and common pitfalls for amending promissory notes which have related deeds of trust attached to them. I tried to look for the email chain but am coming up short. Can someone
forward that back to me? Or, maybe, I'm completely making this up and I actually only had a night terror about it? <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyways, I have a client who needs to provide a partial payout to a grantee on a deed of trust ahead of the payment schedule on the promissory note - which will affect the repayment terms. I just want to make sure when I do this that
I protect the grantor from any confusing when it's time to complete the payoff statements at closing in a few months. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any help, guidance, thoughts, epiphonys, horror stories - are appreciated. <br clear="all">
