Old liens on title

Preston Hamilton
Posted

Working a deal now where the owner had a person on a landsale contract a few years ago. The person on contract did not make their payments, and voluntarily went to the county to release their lien, so the current owner is fine there.

However, while they were in the land sale, they got a loan from someone who put a lien on title that he forgot about. Now in the middle of the short, nobody can find this guy. He has a deed between the person on the land sale contract and himself, but not with the current owner of the property.

Haven't run accross this before, we can't get a hold of the guy. Am I SOL? This is in Oregon by the way.
