Hi All, I'm new to this forum. I live in Los Angeles County, CA and my parents are loaning me some money as a 2nd and want it documented with a promissory note and Deed of Trust on my LA County house to satisfy the IRS. My question is very specific so please try to be narrow and specific in the replies - thanks! Clearly the DOT needs to be notarized and recorded with the LA County Recorded. My question specifically is: Does the "Note Secured by Deed of Trust" ALSO need to be notarized? And does it need to be recorded? I cannot find that information, in fact I find conflicting information, some say yes, others say no. So which is it? Please do NOT tell me to hire an attorney. I wouldn't be asking on this forum if I wanted that answer :) Thanks!
