Pretty much what @Ronald Rohde and @Rick Pozos said.  Find a lawyer in the state where the property is located because the statutes are state-specific.  Don't get just anything off the internet.  There's usually (in Texas) a contract for the purchase/sale of note/lien, the assignment of note/lien that's recorded, and the alonge (with or without recourse) to the note.  You must deliver the wet-ink note to the buyer along with copies of all the rest.
