THE 12 FATAL MISTAKES SELLERS MAKE IN TODAY'S MARKET AND HOW TO AVOID THEM...A SERIES..#7
Misinterpreting Your Ownership Interests and Title Chain...
Was the property taken as tenancy by entireties, tenancy in common, joint tenancy?? Do you have a clear chain of title on the property?? When was the last time you ran a title search?? Do you have title insurance for anyone who may try to claim a stake in the property?? 
Unfortunately, many people have no idea about the current title status on their home. Without a clear title, you HAVE NO SALE. You can have a lien put on a home for anything from a past-owed debt and lack of tax payments to a contractor lien that didn't get paid for a job even BEFORE you ever owned the house. This becomes YOUR responsibility and headache when its time to sell. Be sure you have a clear understanding of what your ownership interests are and how your chain of title looks.
