Scam Junk Alert:

If you buy a home you can expect your mailbox to fill up quickly with letters that look like government notices with information about your deed, but are in fact just ads trying to get you to buy a copy of a document that you probably don’t need.

The letters will look very legit, as if they were sent from the county and will have titles like “recorded deed notice.” Please be aware that any company asking to pay for a copy of your deed is a scam because the deed is public records and can be looked up for FREE. Do not pay anything!

These letters are good old-fashioned junk mail that appear to be more serious than they are, but if you have any questions on any mail that comes in to your home please feel free to contact me or your lender.
