MONITOR YOUR HOME’S TITLE FOR FREE

Title and recording fraud is increasingly common and it occurs when a fictitious lien gets recorded against your home’s title. Once this happens your property has a “clouded title” and you cannot sell, re-finance, or take out any new loans without paying off the fraudulent lien.
 

Rather than pay for a monthly title monitor subscription service, most local counties offer this service for free! Below is each county’s website:
