  • I’m hoping folks here can assist with some pointers on locating notes at my county’s recorder, in order to market note purchasing to the holder.

    I’m going to go in for a chat with the folks there, but hoped some of my time might be saved by following any sage advice that might be gained here ahead of time.

    Any pointers?

    Andrew,

    You’ll probably being going in to the Deeds Records room – at least this is what it’s called in Georgia.

    Kim and I learned how to do title searches by hiring deed dogs (this is what folks who do title look ups are called in Georgia) to teach us how to do title searches. The deed dogs do NOT work for the county. Most are private contractors who work for law firms.

    Hope this helps.

    PS Begin by looking up your house in the deeds room. Then your friends houses. then your neighbors’ houses.

    In Indiana there is an online resource called Doxpop which has allowed the records of most counties to be online. See if your state has something similar. There is a fee for using this service but it allows you to do a record search for new mortgages and then you may have to sort that by ones which are initiated by banks vs individuals or LLC’s and Trusts. Depending on how your state is set up this may get what you want.
