Fee property records?
The website U.S. Title Records offers a Free Foreclosure Activity Report for any property showing Notice of Default (NOD) or foreclosure activity. When a property record is accessed through the Property Records page of the site, foreclosure activity on the property shows up along with the county records when the data is generated. The Foreclosure Activity report shows the stage of foreclosure beginning with a Notice of Default, Pre Foreclosure or REO (bank owned).
Before pulling a preliminary title report, (substantial cost to the buyer unless in escrow), most buyers would obviously benefit from knowing the background of a properties history prior to entertaining an offer and tying up funds in escrow. A buyer who is entertaining Seller Financing would not only benefit greatly with this type of information but could circumvent some serious losses when it comes to consideration or "money down". The seller may have undisclosed title issues such as tax liens or judgments against the property and/or be in foreclosure in arrears with mortgage payments.
A simple Online Property Records Search would reveal potential issues early in the stages of buying a home or property including potential clouds, encumbrances delinquent taxes etc.
