Someone has reached out to me to purchase their house that they purchased with seller financing from the previous owner. It does not look like anything was recorded and the previous sellers name is still on the tax accessors website.
Would I just make the offer to the current owner and let the title company handle the rest?
I would only deal with the title holder and contract them to provide free and clear title.
I agree. Maybe they seller financed using a land contract or contract for deed. Those are similar to auto loans where the buyer doesn’t receive title until the outstanding balance is paid in full
