Abstract: As provided by the exemplary method described herein, a single-asset trust would be established by the originator, as settlor, naming a special purpose entity as the trustee. The trust would be subject to the terms of a written indenture designed for this specific purpose which would be used generically by all originators participating in the program. The funds necessary to acquire the real property would be deposited into the trust by the originator, as settlor, and used to fund the purchase of the property. The trust would then enter into a combination lease/contract-for-deed agreement with the lessee/purchaser. The settlor would be the initial beneficiary of the trust, but the beneficial interest in the payment stream arising from the trust would be assignable to third parties. The power to remove and appoint trustees would be granted to the beneficiary and the beneficiary would have the power to direct the trustee with respect to foreclosure of the property.
