Does anyone know where you go to find out about a title and the loan someone has on a house? I was reading up on short sales and I found out you can find out how much the mortgage is left on the house and what bank is owed the money this way you can really negotiate on a house.
Town you think? I mean for free. Everywhere I search I need the name of a person when I only have the address of the house.

In Suffolk, Riverhead by the courts and jailhouse is where you can get title info. Not sure what you are entiltled to, info wise though. It is on Cty rd 51

Re: Title of a house
there is a website where you can see all the houses that are in foreclosure and all the info on them... you have to pay but you can sign up for a free month trial.... i forget the name but maybe you can google?!

Re: Title of a house
I can find some info when I do a search if it was public notified due to papers served to the owner/bank due to back taxes. But that house isn't listed. If the house I am really into is worth it I may take a trip out east. I think there is a site that does the info but you have to drop your cc info even with the free trial and that kinda scares me (but they have a ton of properties listed) may have to reconsider.

Re: Title of a house
you can go to the county clerk and pull copies of deeds adn mortgages, but there is a fee. I'm not sure of anywhere u can find out how much is owed b/c thats not public record.
Unless it is a notice of sale, then the judgment amount is published.

I don't think you can do it for free. At work we use a title search company for last owner search and you can pay more to find out any liens that might be on the property (ex. mortgages).

Re: Title of a house
cool thank you! if it is only $20-30 it is worth it to find out what is exactly owed to the bank this way I know how to negotiate the price a bit more.
