When I purchase a partial, I take full assignment of the mortgage/deed of trust and endorsement of the note.

Stephanie,from an insurance perspective:1. contact your agent to see if you have to change policies or endorse the existing policy.   

I am not suggesting or endorsing anyone in particular.

She accepted… and we then signed legal docs including an option to buy …I wrote a check,,, she endorsed the check… I then gave her cash for the check.Done deal….

Do you have it endorsed on the policy?

Someone mentioned T41 endorsement.

@Melanie Johnston thank you for your endorsement! 

Is it true MLS can fine brokers for any of its agents not having a paid REALTOR® endorsement??

Obviously, you must find an insurance agent who communicates well and can explain terms and policies in plain English.You weren’t specific with your question but there are two types of insurance you need, Title Insurance and Property Insurance.For Title Insurance we require a lender's title insurance policy for 125% of the loan amount, a 2006 ALTA policy or 2021 if available, and various endorsements.

I'm not really involved in that aspect of it, so I'd hesitate to endorse any particular company because I can't actually speak to how good/bad any particular company is.Google searching "Loan Servicing TitleCompanyName" is a place to start.
