I just bought a little place from the owner in the city where I work (no realtor or mortgage).
We had a local law firm handle the transfer and I was given some papers at the closing. I think one of the papers was a "Warranty Deed". My understanding is that they no longer give a formal "deed" for city properties like they do for a piece of rural ground.
I know laws vary from place to place. My question is: Will I receive any papers (deed or otherwise) stating that I own this place ? If not, do I have any legal right to request one ?
I would like to have a deed from the county that says I am the owner.
