@Misook FoleyTypically a bank will not release one of the lien holders and a refinance would be necessary.As part of the settlement agreement the court may order the property and or the debt to one of the parties but again that name is not releasedOther factors do come into play such as what state it was in as some states have different laws regarding equitable interest etcI would speak to your divorce attorney about this and see what can be done

IRS rules on allowable work are somewhat unclear on the degree to which a Self-Directed IRA account holder can do minor work on a property themselves.

The mortgage (and other lines) would likely be wiped out (but talk with a real estate lawyer or title company to be sure, I am not one) - which is why mortgage holders usually require an escrow account so they can pay the property taxes.

Some tech companies have entered the chat and are selling "aerial imagery" to insurance carriers that they are using to re-underwrite existing policy holders.

@Cole BarthelSpeak to the holder of the contract for deed and see if it can be assigned to you.

Part of my business was providing loan servicing for seller financed transactions and this type of intervention between a borrower and seller, I would have to say, was more than welcomed by underlying mortgage holders (banks).

Since it is in my name still I think I can leave it in place since the hard money lien holder is ok with it.   

I've yet to have anyone on BP articulate to me how an LLC in one of these states perceived to have greater privacy protections will prevent a plaintiffs attorney from suing the deed holder in the event  someone is injured on your property amongst the various other common claims a property owner is subject to.

I am exploring my options for borrowing against a property that I am the legal title holder to.

When I called the lender, they said that I nor my LLC would be able to do the refi, only the previous owner (mortgage holder).
