Finding the Note Owner
I am looking at a three unit property near me that I saw listed on auction.com and also in a foreclosure email I get regularly. It would seem that the Deed to the property says it was Mortgaged through MERS, I call MERS and they say the deed was sold to Ditek. Ditek says "due to selling all our properties we are no longer in business" All of this was through automated systems, no people ever answered my call.
At the same time my county records also show numerous tax lien notices on the owner.
Does anyone have a way for me to hunt down the current mortgage holder? Auction.com says the property auction is being managed by Brock and Scott who says they do not have this property currently on their system even though I have case number for them from auction.com
I am pulling my hair out at this point.
Any suggestions?
Thanks so much and stay healthy!
Chris

You need to search the county records for any assignments of the mortgage. If it is not online then you will need to go down to the county in-person, or you could pull a title report and have an abstractor do it for you
