Loan officer and borrower discussing loan processing in Idaho

Is Idaho a Title State or an Attorney State?

Idaho is a title state. Title and escrow companies typically handle the closing process, and attorney involvement is not legally required.

Is Idaho a Community Property State for Mortgages?

Yes. Idaho is a community property state, and neither spouse can sell, convey or encumber community real estate unless the other spouse joins in signing the instrument (or has given an express power of attorney to do so). Idaho law also says a married person's homestead can't be encumbered without the other spouse's consent, shown by both spouses signing and acknowledging the instrument or by a deed making the home one spouse's separate property.

What Security Instrument Is Used in Idaho?

Idaho home loans are usually secured by a deed of trust. Idaho law allows a deed of trust only on property inside a city, on up to 80 acres not mainly used for agriculture, or on up to 40 acres of any kind, and the standard Idaho deed of trust includes the borrower's statement that the property fits one of those limits.
