  • What you'll learn:

  • Why recording your assignment of mortgage is the single most important step before any monitoring begins — and what automatic protections it triggers

  • How to check property tax status on a twice-annual cadence and what to do if taxes are delinquent on a loan you own

  • Why senior lien status is the most critical ongoing check for junior lien holders — and how to confirm it without pulling a new credit report

  • How to use PACER to proactively check for borrower bankruptcy filings before the formal notice arrives

  • Why periodically searching your property addresses on listing sites takes thirty seconds and can change everything about how you respond to a sale
