The original seller was the developer, yet he (the corporation) did not pay, when I bought the home from them, they wanted me to do so . . . how pray tell did our Gracie get out of it ?? Gracie??

Since we did not have a loan, we didn't have to have title insurance if we did not want it on a new home. That's all I know. We trusted the developer to have clear title on the land.

Village07 hopefully will read this and explain it. She is one of the smartest people I know about this kind of stuff.

The folks who bought our house in Hadley paid half of the lawyers fee and all closing costs on their loan. We weren't really looking to sell it and they kind of talked us into it.

They are dear friends to this day, so I guess it was alright.
