Investor Friendly Title Company in Oakland / Probate Question

[Sean Cronan]

Hey BP!

I did a forum search, but could not find an answer. Apologies if this has been answered.

1) Does anyone know of a good, investor friendly title company in Oakland (or Alameda County)?

2) Current situation: Seller's parent died. Seller is through Probate, but has not transferred their name onto the deed (for an interesting reason). Seller is wondering if we can transfer the deed straight to the end buyer, bypassing the heir of ever having the property in their name?

Thanks for the help!

Let me guess.  Your seller or one of the heirs to the property has giant liens against their name.  So they don't want to take title.

Wait, way more ideas:  

One of the heirs is receiving Medi-Cal or other public assistance?

One of the heirs owes restitution to a victim of crime in CA?

Child support abstract judgment?

Pending divorce?

Is applying for 1st time homeowner loan?

Ok.  I give up.
