• rejecting borrower's standing to claim mortgage assignment was invalid because it occurred after PSA closing date

• “When interpreting trust language, ... we do not read words in isolation and out of context. Rather, we strive to discern the settlor’s intent from the trust instrument as a whole . . . ”
