Twice refinanced, then paid off: the chain of deeds of trust, reconveyance

I went through my homebuying archive recently and realized that I may be missing some of the relevant deeds.

I bought my house in the state of Oregon, refinanced it twice, followed by paying it off. I would like to reconstruct the entire chain of deeds that I'm supposed to have, and obtain anything I'm missng.

I do have the following documents:

  1. Statutory Warranty Deed, wherein the previous owner conveyed the property to me on purchase.
  2. Two Deeds of Trust for two different lenders, establishing my house as security for the respective loans.
  3. One Substitution of Trustee & Deed of Reconveyance between lenders - this relates to one of the refinancing events, where lender B took over from lender A.
  4. The final Substitution of Trustee & Deed of Reconveyance (STDoR) that released the house from the last lender to me on my paying it off.

My questions are: 1. Given that I refinanced twice, am I correct to expect to have another Deed of Trust and another STDoR? I think so because I believe the chain of deeds should be: Deed of Trust for the original lender A -> STDoR from lender A to lender B -> Deed of Trust #2 for lender B -> STDoR from B to C -> Deed of Trust #3 for lender C -> STDoR from C to me. 2. If I am indeed missing the 2 deeds in the middle of the chain, what's the best way to go about obtaining them? I can easily obtain any document from the county recorder's office provided I give them the instrument number. Problem is, if I'm missing 2 middle links in the chain I don't know that instrument number. (If I were missing, say, just one Deed of Trust, I could take its instrument number form the subsequent STDoR).

Thank you!

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear

Fast Rising HOA Fees on NYC Condo, No Budget Provided

My wife and I are first time homeowners and could use some advice on a situation we've been having with our management company and Board. We bought a condo in Brooklyn two years ago, and since then our HOA fees have climbed dramatically. In August of last year, our fees were increased by ~30% and just yesterday we received notice that this new figure would be increased by 16% as of June 1st. The by-laws for our building state that ten days before such a change goes into effect, the Board must provide unit owners with the itemized budget upon which the new numbers were based. This didn't happen last year, and when I asked the management company about it, they just kept vaguely insisting the Board had done due diligence. After I kept pressing, they finally sent a budget that was several years old, so obviously not the one that the new numbers were based on. When I asked the management company for contact information for the Board to get further clarification, I was told that th

How to create fidelity investments current bank statement for lender during escrow

I transferred a certain amount to my bank account to complete the minimum down payment required. The bank wants a current statement of the transaction. Unfortunately, fidelity only does quarterly statements so a December statement is not available and we are due to close next week. I called fidelity and they they can only provide a letter but the bank said that won’t suffice. Any way I can find or make one of my own that has my account number/name along with all the recent month’s activities? submitted by /u/bodaciousbeans [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/zmnnqo/how_to_create_fidelity_investments_current_bank/
