Ask Terry Questions Home title fraud

Home title fraud

By Terry Savage on January 06, 2026 | Housing / Real Estate

If your deed is in a trust will that protect your home title?

Terry Says

It should, because borrowing would require trust documents, although your Revocable Living Trust uses your SS number. As noted in my recent column, you can take our a home equity line of credit, to make sure no one can borrow against your title because the lender would be notified even if you haven’t drawn down the line.
