What is the name of your state? Ohio
Refi'd our mortgage in 12/04 with a company called Concorde Acceptance. They immediately sold the note to Citifinancial (ugh). We did a title search recently and noticed that only the Concorde mortgage is recorded - nothing from Citi. Skipping some unnecessary details, we also recently requested a copy of the assignment to Citi, and Citi replied with a "Lost Assignment" motion. I find it interesting that not only have they not recorded the mortgage lien, but also cannot produce evidence of the assignment.
What do you think? Shouldn't Concorde have released the lien when it sold to Citi, with a new lien then subsequently filed by Citi? I'm not very knowledgable in this area, but that seems common sense to me. What would happen if we went to refi again? Who would get paid?
Thanks for any input.
