About your method, I have attempted it before on our county clerks site, which is kind of a tricky site and to view the documents you have to pay$5 a piece.So for example, I put in the legal description for a property I know has 2 different liens, one I just wholesaled actually.That brings up a window with 9 different documents, 4 are listed as equity security instruments w 4 different companies, 3 are affidavits, 1 is a homestead and 1 is an agreement.

@Kevin Stalbaum the best for all parties would be a security instrument (mortgage, deed of trust, etc -- depends on your state) and a note.
