Trying to Transfer Title from a Divorcee
Hi BiggerPockets!
I am a newer land investor and I am trying to transfer a title in Apache county, AZ into my name. The woman I am buying the property from was given the land in the 70s while she was married and went by her married name. She is now divorced and since the divorce happened in the 80s says she doesn't have any of the paperwork that came with it to prove her name changed. I called the county and they said I need to have her sign a deed from her married name into her current name but I will need it notarized and she has no way of proving her former name, what can I do?
Thank you!
