Nick Perry explains deed theft, where criminals file fake paperwork at the county recorder's office to steal your home in minutes. You won't know until a buyer shows up at your door. Every county offers free fraud alerts that notify you of filings against your address, sign up now on your county registry website.
Are you outta your mind? No, because did you know that your house can be stolen from you in 5 minutes? And almost no one is telling you how you can prevent it. It's called deed theft, and here's how it works. First, someone files 5 minutes of paperwork at the county. Then they transfer your deed into their name. So now on public record, your home is suddenly somebody else's. But you don't find out until the buyer they sold it to shows up at your door. So do this to prevent it from happening. Go to your county registry website and sign up for property fraud alerts. Now the second anything gets filed against your address, you get notified. Every county runs them. They cost $0. Almost nobody uses them. Set one up for every property you own and sent this to someone who needs to see it.
