A Two Owner Search Report thoroughly examines the property’s ownership history for the past two owners, verifying the title through the two most recent arm’s length transactions. It identifies any potential issues related to both the current and previous owners, providing detailed information on outstanding mortgages, liens, judgments, tax information and any other relevant information recorded within the scope of the two-owner search period. This report is typically ordered for the origination of refinance loans, home equity loans, short sales, foreclosure auctions, and tax sale auctions, enabling buyers and lenders to identify any potential issues or discrepancies.Top of Form
