Property Ownership

A Wyoming property subject to a 'deed of trust' differs from a property subject to a 'mortgage' because in a deed of trust:

AThe borrower has no right of redemption
BA trustee holds legal title on behalf of the lender until the loan is repaid✓ Correct
CThe lender directly holds legal title to the property
DThere are only two parties to the deed of trust

Explanation

In a deed of trust, the borrower (trustor) transfers legal title to a neutral trustee who holds it for the benefit of the lender (beneficiary). The trustee can sell the property through non-judicial foreclosure upon default.
