Real Property Fraud Alerts

|

We have had clients ask us if they should be concerned about someone stealing the title to their house and what they should do about their concerns. The concern relates to the theory that a title thief may be able to forge paperwork and file documents with the county office showing evidence that they own your property instead of you.

Fortunately, many counties offer free notice services that you can sign up for to receive notice if there have been any filings related to your property. To make things easier for clients in the counties near our office, we have compiled the links for nearby counties that are providing free notice services.
