“Title Fires” Extinguished in Port Orange FL By The Pros
August 28th, 2007 Categories: Daytona Beach Real Estate News, Port Orange Real Estate, Title News
Last week was an interesting Title Week in the beautiful City of Port Orange! 
One interesting challenge for the week revolved around a local Port Orange church closing on a refinance transaction. When any non-profit organization sells or mortgages their real property (meaning real estate) the title issues leap to the surface and determining who is authorized to sign on behalf of the church is often a title nightmare. We were able to examine the By-laws and work through the lengthy process involving Trustees and Board Members, congregation approvals, etc.
A second issue arose when a customer wanted to refinance property she was given by her father who since passed away. (She never recorded her deed until after her father died!) This can be a HUGE problem.
Please know that in the State of Florida, the moment a fully executed original deed exchanges hands, you have established delivery and the title to that property passes from the seller to the buyer. If the deed is not recorded in the Public Records, there is no notice of the transfer which may cause serious title issues.
Two more title fires extinguished by the Pros at Professional Title!
Did you know that many things that you do or that happen to you may affect the title to any real property you own, have owned, or might own in the future?? Some judgments attach to real property for up to 20 years!
The second you purchase ground, or come into title in any way, you may be carrying baggage that might attach to that piece of ground for a very long time. Please feel free to contact Cyndi Parker at Professional Title in Port Orange FL at any time if you have questions or concerns regarding your property.
