as security until he

trust. |

| During a foreclosure
beneficiary may opt to use a judicial procedure or non-judicial
procedure to foreclose on a property. |
- A judicial
foreclosure (Court
Foreclosure) involves the court system and may take over a
year. The trustor has the right of redemption after the
foreclosure sale.
- A non-judicial
foreclosure (Trustee's
Sale) does not involve court action and generally takes
around four months. The trustor does not have the right to
redeem the property after the sale. This foreclosure method is
the most often used in California and other States.
