The recorded deed is a starting point for seeing whose names are on the property record. Houghton County's Register of Deeds keeps recorded property documents, but the deed by itself may not resolve what a divorce judgment or court order means for this sale.
Michigan law allows a divorce court to make a judgment restoring or awarding real or personal property between spouses. In ordinary terms, a judgment can address property as part of the divorce. If the judgment or another order mentions this house, ask a Michigan family-law attorney what it means and have the title company review it before signing closing papers.
You can talk with us while those details are being checked. The title company confirms which signatures and documents are needed for the particular closing.
