Title: Liability in case Owner uses aliases
Post by: Dave2 on September 29, 2014, 10:22:12 PM
Looking for Ernest Bidder's so called hidden gem and doing the usual title searches at a county registry office (not my usual one).  

One of the properties I was searching had a court case registered against him that I did follow-up investigation on.  The owners (more then one) had an unbelievable amount of aliases they used.  
(They filled an entire legal page single spaced.)  

To do usual sherriffs searches on all of them would probably cost more then the property was worth. This leads to an interesting question if the owner of a property uses an alias instead of his real name to register ownership of the property and which Revenue Canada registers against his real name what is your liability?

I might even be willing for this guy   8) to collect his long overdue beer for a good answer.  

One of the easy way outs of course is to ask Tri target or OTS to do the search for you.  They would go bankrupt at all the cost given their regular search prices.

I found the hidden gem, also lots of owners, but my lawyer says it's clean
