Depending on the state you live in you either use a deed of trust or a mortgage to secure a promise to pay to a piece of real property. It is recorded at the courthouse and it now becomes secured.
collateralize existing personal, non-secured loan…how to. - Posted by MilNC

Suppose a person has a low interest unsecured note, that they owe, to a family member, and wants to acquire real estate and use it to secure this existing note, after the fact. No banks involved, If any secondary market would be involved, it could be re-structured. (actually, it has not been written yet).
Does one deed the property to note holder/family member…they can sell the property and take back a note from the
buyer for higher interest rate? Or, somehow attach note to property with no sale?
If he then buys, then sells with his own owner financing, then how does he transfer that to the family member that he owes the low int. rate unsecured note/money to?
Approximate amount of proposed unsecured loan: 50K
Goals:
Protect the estate in case the borrower, dies;
Preserve Family tranquility
Protect lender (family member).
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Maybe I need to go to
the note group on this site with this.
