📜 What is a "Wild Deed"? (And why should homebuyers care?)
Think of your property's history as a chain. Each link represents ownership passing from one person to the next. But what happens if a link is missing or disconnected?
That is what we call a "Wild Deed." 🔍
A wild deed is a signed and recorded deed, but because it wasn’t recorded in the proper order, it breaks the chain of title. It's "wild" because it's completely disconnected from the official chain of ownership, which means it can be invisible to standard, superficial title searches.
Imagine buying a house, only to find out years later that someone else has a claim because of a misplaced, "wild" deed from decades ago!
