Title Pirates

Have you ever heard of property theft by using a Quitclaim Deed? Did you know you can help protect yourself against this kind of crime?

I thought I had taken these steps a few years ago but I found out today you have to go back and do it again if you change or do away with your primary email address (the email address you use to set up alerts with the Register of Deeds).

The alert service is free. You just need to enter your name, and other versions of your name as well as other names on your property title/deed, and an email address. Then as I understand it, if any records with those names are accessed you will receive and email alert. With the alert you can get ahead of this terrible crime that could cost you a ton of money to fix after the fact.

You may have heard about someone trying to sell the Presley mansion a couple years ago?

The law allows a ‘buyer’ to transfer interest in the property away from the owner without their knowledge. Sounds like something needs to change, in my opinion.

Here are some links for your convenience:

Wilson County – Register of Deeds – https://www.wilsondeeds.com/# You’ll see a button there that’ll take you to the Fraud Alert system.

Also there on the Wilson County – Register of Deeds page, you’ll see a button for “Thank a Vet“. Here there are 15 pages of Wilson County business Honoring Veterans with discounts on their services.

Just something ‘Good to Know’

Mt. Juliet Veterans Wall

Here’s some more information about the veterans wall our Service Officer Patti Whitmore was talking about at our meeting last night.

Here’s a link to take you directly to the page in order to get your name on the wall: https://www.mtjuliet-tn.gov/1629/Mt-Juliet-Veterans-Wall

In one place on their page they say “$3 per letter” and in another place they say $3 “ for each name submission“, so you may want to call them for clarification. The phone number is down there near the statement “for each submission”.
