Florida is a lien theory state. You are the title holder of any property you purchase and your deed must be recorded in the land records. If you borrow money to purchase the property you must sign a note and mortgage. The lender will record the mortgage and it will become a lien on the property. If you default on the mortgage the lender may foreclose through a court action and have the property sold by the court.

Nevada is a lien theory state. In "title theory" states, actual "legal title" to the property temporarily passes to a trustee to secure the debt. The borrower (grantor), retains possession rights and "equitable title" and has full use of the property for the mortgage term. When the loan is paid off, legal title is restored without the necessity of a reconveyance. In "lien theory" states, the lender (mortgagee) places a "lien" on the mortgaged real property while the borrower retains both "equitable" and "legal" title.
