You can sign a Promissory Note and Deed of Trust in favor or your Mother and record the Deed of Trust with the County Recorder. No matter what happens if you pass away, unless the home is foreclosed upon, your mother will be able to recover the amount you borrowed when the new house is eventually sold.
