  • How do you get a release of lien went you are wrapping a mortgage and you have a buyer on a second wrap. If you pay the first lien off and you still have the second lien with years left to pay on the mortgage. The Owner is not around.

    The original wrap usually mirrors the underlying loan. When you pay off the underlying loan, there is a release of lien sent to the title company who will record it. At that time, the title company will also file a release of lien showing that your wrap is paid off. The seller is not needed for this.

    First, I could argue to have a power of attorney so you have owner privileges with banks, etc. Just easier.

    Second, if you pay off the lein, have them send YOU a satisfaction and YOU record it, then you know it’s done. Should be an issue. The originator doesn’t have to be in the picture, just the lender.

    Jackie, I’ve had a few times when the lender did not send anything to anyone, until I asked for it, but was easy.
