Each trustee shall have the following powers, whether expressly contained in the terms of the trust or not, unless expressly forbidden:
(1)Such trustee may accept conveyance of the mortgaged property when it deems it advisable, instead of obtaining title thereto by foreclosure; provided no right to any deficiency judgment on the notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness secured by such mortgage shall be affirmatively released by such trustee without the consent of the owners of such notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness.
(2)After acquiring title to such mortgaged property in either manner, or if money is needed by such trustee to redeem such property from the foreclosure of tax liens or other liens prior to such trust mortgage and to thus acquire such title, or to purchase such property at a court sale in any such foreclosure action, such trustee may, directly or indirectly, mortgage such premises to any Connecticut bank, to obtain the money necessary to so redeem or purchase such property or to pay any taxes or assessment liens due on such property. No such bank, accepting such a mortgage, shall be responsible for the rightful application of the money thus obtained by the trustee. No commission or bonus shall be paid by such trustee for such loan. All property or money received by such trustee as provided in this section shall be subject to such trust and shall be held and disposed of for the benefit of the beneficiaries of such trust, pro rata, or in such manner as such trust provides.
