The problem is they need to be investigated by an entity that doesn’t have an interest in the matter. That would exclude the Government.

sorry you are wrong. The Title Companies attorneys file the fraudulent transfers and keep the fraud going especially when it protects them from haing to Indemnify when they are caught with a forged deed.

Nice thought, but unfortunately, one of the founding members of MERS is ALTA, the American Land Title Association (which is the national organization to which these title companies belong). And your point about homeowners buying title insurance, while correct, misses the mark as well. Banks require title insurance to be purchased to insure their lien priority, whenever they accept a mortgage on real property. Most homeowners buy the Owner’s policy because the cost is usually insignificant if purchased simultaneously with the mortgage (lender’s) policy.

I have said the real help for all of us would come from the Title Companies.
Their adding a paragraph that absolved them from all liability would not hold up or look too good to a jury of homeowners.
Homeowners buy Title Insurance not banks so their loyalty should be to those homeowners. Anyway, why would a Title Insurance Company lay down its reputation for a bank?
Just the opposite, all Title Companies don’t like the County records they depend on being all screwed up by the financial institutions. Records in error cost their companies money paying out claims.
