TITTLE ISSUES ON A MAJOR RENO FLIP

[Ivan Correa]

Looking to see if someone can assist with an issue on a property I purchased in 2020.

I bought a Heavy reno 1 family 25X100 property in NJ . Late February early March was when I closed. This was the second property we had closed on in the same period with the same attorney . This property was getting a lot of action I ran the numbers it would be a good flip so I offered below asking, cash, no contingencies, close in 10 days. It came down to three people I was told I could win this if I used the then owners tittle company so I said sure. Tittle was ran etc. My attorney at no point in time mentioned any tittle issues didn't mention any red flags said everything was ok so we closed. The world closed down I got covid some other family members as well so time passed by and I didn't get back to it until September- October (taxes were paid, lawn mowed etc.) We secured financing for the reno , in the refinancing portion of this when tittle was re-ran the lenders tittle company said they do no feel comfortable moving forward until these issues were taken care of. My attorney reached out to the tittle company that had insured it and he was told they would re-insure it no problem. I didn't feel comfortable doing all this work just to have a potential buyer's tittle company tell me this or force a potential buyer to use this company I don't know and obviously is not good. My attorney told me to file a tittle claim and he said it would take months , I tried to place it limitedly off market at a discount and cut my losses but no bites. A close friend with colleagues at a tittle company looked a the tittle search and said the following.
