The House In Colorado

Remember the house in the AMW video that Paul Bonacci mentioned? What information do we have about the house?(such as address, previous owners etc.) If you have any information about it post it here. Thanks.

You know, when I first came across that thread, I really got interested in it....because of what I used to do. Suffice it to say I was a researcher in the tax department of a large mortgage company and my job was to investigate and track down issues with parcel numbers and so forth. Granted, most of my research was done electronically (www.netronline.com is a GREAT tool), I never really physically went anywhere but I got the job done.

That thread indicated that they'd hit a dead end with regard to who owned the property and when. I pulled out all the stops...dug as hard and as far as I could. I could verify virtually everything that was on the thread with regard to when the property changed hands and to whom (by the way, the county records have LESS information on them now than they did a year ago)...but couldn't take it back any further than they had.

I live in Colorado now and I've been sorely tempted to take a Sunday afternoon drive out that direction to see if I can get a look at the place...but, I'll be honest, I haven't done it yet because life is hectic and gas is expensive....even moreso since...oh, nevermind, I don't want to get sidetracked.

I'm thinking that the ONLY way anyone's ever going to track the property records back any further than what they've got online is going to be a hardcopy search done at the recorder's office...and, odds are even then you won't find anything except some public employee that's been given instructions to report on anyone looking into the matter. And since I live here....I'd rather not have a bunch of LEOs kicking in my door.

Wendigo, you pretty much have the way it went. I don't remembering listing all the owners between now and then as it wasn't needed but I am sure each time it was sold some one did the paperchase to verify chain of title for insurance reasons. Unless Colorado uses the Torrens system which the clerk issues certificate of title, and doesn't requiring further validation.

The way things work here, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a huge difference between the way they handle titles in rural areas as opposed to urban areas.

Believe me, when we bought our house (which happens to be in a city), the complete history of the title was not only available but was given to us during the process.

That house, however, is about 5 miles from nowhere....so, I wouldn't be surprised if the records weren't exactly up to speed.
