If you record this at the courthouse which most lawyers will do, AND you later have to get that person out of the house, they must sign a quit claim etc. before any buyer's closing attorney will close the sale of the house.If the land contract occupant doesn't pay the insurance you will get a letter that insurance has not been paid and they will sign you up for a new insurance company of their choosing.

Not unless the banker is standing behind you in line at the courthouse when you record the deed.

Then we sat down with 15 years of his records.

Either the loan can't be done or the person you are speaking to can't get it done---either way, you should try someone else...For the record, I return phone calls promptly and can tell in the first 72 hours whether there is a "deal or no deal"...Good luck!

I usually have my newer clients start out with excel and get comfortable with the art of record keeping and then migrate to quickbooks when necessary.

I'm not sure how reliable a preliminary title report from a realtor is but its worth looking into.I'll defenitely check into the county records office and see if I can make heads or tails out of it, if not I figure I can always grease someone's hand their to explain it to me.

The insurance company got me on the phone and recorded what was an interview.

You need to RECORD your option so it shows your interest in the property and clouds the title.

There is a house that I pass by frequently, looks abandoned, grass overgrown, no house number on it, tree limbs in the yard....so did some research on it and I believe the owner has died....she was like 97....I looked online in courthouse records and see someone with Power of Attorney....thinking its a relative who lives out of town...I have tried to track her down using the whitepages.com....but there are 50+ people with the same name.

Time has to pass for the company to established a track record with the credit.
