Escrow On Purchase From Owner
I hope this gets through- my last post was deleted but I really need help- maybe it was posted in the wrong forum.. Any help would be appreciated.
I am buying a house from a private party that owns the house. I am ready to pay it off but the owner lives out of state and I want to be sure the transfer of the deed will go in my name and be recorded . Do I need to go through a title company or how do I do this? I am afraid of leins or something showing up on the property after I pay the balance due. This post is not "board hustling" and im not claiming to "been there done that". I am inexperienced, and purchasing my first home and just asking procedure THATS ALL! Thanks everyone
Not sure how it's done in LV, but my guess your best bet would be to go to a RE attorney and have them help you close on this properly and legally. It may involve title companies and title insurance, and will cost some money, but for your own peace of mind, it seems well worth it.
Just my .02,
