YOU DO!!!!!  Given the market is fraught with a high foreclosure rate most people who own these homes have accrued a number of liens and judgments against  the property.  It’s imperative that a buyer is fully aware of these debts assessed against a property before the transaction is completed.  If the buyer is purchasing the property with a new loan, the property must be delivered to a buyer free and clear of all liens against the property prior to closing.  Failure to do so would cause the buyer to be unable to close on the property.   Or in the event the buyer is paying cash for the property, failure to require the payoff of these debts could inadvertently place that debt against the buyer.  For more information about protecting your property ownership rights, please call Cheryl at 720-373-0654 or call one of the title representatives listed below.
