***CLOSING ATTORNEY TAKING TOO LONG?***

Posted
Deal is ready to close only being interrupted by not able to locate owner of the entity 50% belongs to it 50% owned by lady I have property under paperwork with. Attorney working on the sellers end cant locate the registered agent so said something about pushing it through the judicial system to convey 100% ownership over to the lady I have the contract with. Thing is contract between me and seller and assignment contract with me and buyer is up in Aug. Cant they speed it up as I know this has to be a common issue of owners not being located. Should I stay on the closing attorney to keep the pace or prepare to extend contracts or worse?

You typically can not remove someone from title with a Quiet Title action (liens a and Mtg.ss are a different issue) simply because you can not find them.
