back-title letter

Read a random definition: Statute of limitations

A quick definition of back-title letter:

A back-title letter is a letter from a title insurer that tells a lawyer about the condition of a piece of land's title on a specific date. This helps the lawyer start examining the title from that date forward.

A more thorough explanation:

A back-title letter is a letter sent by a title insurer to an attorney that provides information about the condition of the title to a piece of land as of a specific date. This letter is important because it allows the attorney to start examining the title from that date forward.

For example, if a person is buying a house, the title insurer will send a back-title letter to the attorney handling the transaction. The letter will state the condition of the title as of a certain date, such as the date the current owner purchased the property. The attorney can then use this information to examine the title from that date forward to ensure that there are no issues or problems with the title.

Another example is if a person is refinancing their mortgage. The title insurer will send a back-title letter to the attorney handling the refinance. The letter will state the condition of the title as of the date the current mortgage was taken out. The attorney can then use this information to examine the title from that date forward to ensure that there are no issues or problems with the title.

It is shitty that was a pattern of behavior but I am glad someone is finally standing up for themselves. Like I can be a pretty rigid butthole guy when it comes to getting stuff but a complete lack of empathy or situational awareness shown by the school and their staff is mind blowing. When I was talking about it in the office they all thought I was lying cause it sounds so crazy.

Idk if any of you watch UFC but one time interim heavyweight champ Tom Aspinall won a fight and said on the mic afterwards “if you feel scared to do something, that’s a pretty good sign you should just go fucking do it” and I believe that applies very much to people wondering if they should R&R. Sure you can but why not just see what happens now?
