the question:Can a person’s name be on the deed to a house if their name is not onthe mortgage loan?
the answer:Yes, a person’s name can be on the title to property without them being obligated on a Note being secured by the property. However, the party on title will need to join in the Deed of Trust that secures the Note when the real property they own an inter-est in is being pledged as collateral for said Note. Think of this example: Two peo-ple own property together, but only one works and can qualify for a loan. A lender agrees to lend to the owner that can qualify, but in order to get the loan that is to be secured by the property the non-borrower will need to join in the Deed of Trust to pledge their interest in the property for the loan in the event the loan was not paid. This way the lender can foreclose and take the property in the event of a default.

(StatePoint) Your morning routine may be more important than you think.If your routine seems well...routine, it may be time to put some zest in the everyday steps you take to look and feel your best. Here, four lifestyle bloggers offer tips for doing just that.Get FreshDiscover what it is that you need to walk out your door alert and with confidence. For some, it’s a jolt of caffeine, for others it’s smelling great after a morning shower.
“What do I love more than knowing I smell good? Being told I smell good,” says Jenny Ingram, the family and lifestyle blogger behind Jenny on the Spot. “Starting out the day clean is like starting out with a fresh can-vas.”She recommends layering scents for your own signature fragrance, starting with your body wash.Change It UpYour routine should work for you, but that doesn’t mean it can’t change from day to
day, based on your mood or the aspect of your personality that feels most empowered that day.“A women’s beauty routine is as unique as she is,” says Angela Peters of the blog Hairspray and Highheels, who was recently challenged by Herbal Essences to try out each of the scents in their body wash collec-tion as part of their #ScentGoals campaign.After testing out Hello Hydration, Totally Twisted, Body Burst and Happy Go Lather, Peters was decidedly undecided. “They are
all currently living in my shower and I use a different fragrance depending on the day.”Give Yourself TimeCan’t resist the snooze button? You may be doing yourself a disservice. Feeling rushed in the morn-ing can set the vibe for the entire day and lower your overall productivity.“I like to wake up early and take things slow so I can focus on everything I need to get done that day,” says Oliva Rink of the Lovely Little Style blog. “I turn on my go-to Spotify playlist, light my favorite candle and take time putting on my makeup, doing my hair and going through emails.”Stay EnergizedFragrance can be powerful and the right scent can recharge and refresh your mood.“Keeping cool cleansers on rotation in my shower will get me through the dead of winter and keep me ener-gized and smelling sensa-tional,” says lifestyle and fitness blogger Christine Bibbo Herr of NYC Pretty.

How tough is your Smartphone?(StatePoint) Which new smartphone is dura-ble enough for you? No matter if you choose an iPhone, a Samsung Galaxy or another phone, it’s important to research before you buy. It will help to get a case, it’s also a good idea to invest in a product designed to endure a little abuse.SquareTrade, a protection plan provider for smartphones, tablets and other electronics, recently asked mixed martial artist and UFC fighter Luke Rockhold to find out if Apple had increased the durability of its new phones. Rockhold performed two tests on the phones: a Rockhold Roundhouse and a Submission Bend Test. The findings? Despite new ion-strength-ened Retina HD displays, all phone screens break equally when they hit a hard surface, but the new iPhone 6s Plus, which has been rein-forced with 7000 series aluminum, was truly tougher than the previous models.In addition to Rockhold’s scrutiny, the compa-ny put the new iPhones through their battery of robot tests, to determine each device’s
Breakability Score, including a new extreme temperature test in the company’s newly designed Thermo Rig.Here are some highlights of their findings:• Apple fixed its bend issues. In the BendBot test, the iPhone 6s Plus and 6s withstood 180 and 170 pounds of pressure, respectively -- a 50 to 60 percent improvement in bendability. The Samsung Galaxy Note5 also withstood 170 pounds. “Both manufacturers have responded to Bendgate with significant improvements on the three phones we tested. This is great news for consumers,” says Jessica Hoffman vice president of global communications for SquareTrade.• Face-down drops are still the most common phone hazard. Though manufacturers tout new and improved glass, all three phones shat-tered when dropped face down on pavement. “Phones are still at the mercy of this most com-mon of all problems,” says Hoffman.• The Note5 fares better in extreme cold.
Though the Note5 was the easiest to drop and break, it scored the highest in temperature durability. Extreme temperatures impact a phone’s ability to hold a full charge and shorten the lifespan of the phone’s battery. The Note5 lasted near-ly two hours in extreme cold while making a video call, the iPhone 6s Plus lasted a little more an hour and the iPhone 6s lasted only 30 minutes.Better protect whatever phone you opt for with a hard case and a good protection plan, which can cost just a few dollars monthly and be a great antidote to “oops anxieties.” For informa-tion on protection plans visit www.squaretrade.com.Have butterfingers when handling that pric-ey piece of glass you carry around all day? Frequently leave your phone alone with martial artists? Learn more about your potential new device’s strength and be sure to safeguard your expenditure.
