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!

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
