Show f ' mat i I BE CAUTIOUS WITH DEEDS I I Probably the deed to your property is filed m away, all but forgotten. J Probably you've never checked it since the day it served to pass title from I the previous owner to you. Perhaps you didn't even check it then. There may have been no urgent ! reason to. Nevertheless, an J apparently secure deed J can turn out to be a I worthless piece of paper. For intance, suppose the deed states the name of the seller, but doesn't contain Z his signature? Suppose the seller was under 21? Sup- pose the seller died before I you received the deed? Suppose there's an error in the way the deed describes the property? Any of these defects - as well as many others could make your deed in- valid. But defective deeds ! are the exception, not the ' rule, so don't be frigh- I tened. Just be cautious. . I And the best way to be cautious is to deal with a I reputable real estate J professional and a J knowledgeable real estate J lawyer.
