Question Legal Question

Last month my wife and I transferred the ownership of our house to our Living Trust thru a local lawyer. A warranty deed was sent to Sumter County and it was returned and stamped by Gloria Hayward. I thought that was all we needed to do. However, today I received 2 mailings. The first was a document called Recorded Deed Notice where they wanted $83 for a Current Deed and Property Assessment Profile. Their address was Westlake Village, CA. The second mailing was from a company in Tallahassee. They offer a property profile. They cost $95. I will call the lawyer on Monday but I think both of these offers are a waste of money.

Just wanted to get some opinion here. As of right now I will save my money and ignore these "offers"

We also just set up our trust. Our attorney told us to ignore the mailings when they came for a deed. The one he provided is all we need.

The attorney told us we would get these mailings but to ignore them. The deed he provided is all we need.

Don't fall for it. Go on Sumter County Property Appraiser (that is if your home is in Sumter County) and punch in your address. It should show there was a change made, which cost us $100. paid to our attorney, and should be titles in the trust name.
