Title Company won't Clear Title
I am under contract on a property in NJ. The title company will not clear title because the seller's ex husband filed a judgement against her. However, the seller's divorce decree clearly states that the property cannot be encumbered and the seller cannot be forced to used the proceeds from selling her house to pay the judgement. Title company is still requesting a partial release. Anyone encountered something like this before? Advice to get around this? We are thinking about trying another title company to push it through...
