FAQ
You may contact us at (407) 836-5115 to request a search of your Satisfaction of Mortgage. You may also utilize our web site (www.occompt.com) to see if your Satisfaction has been recorded. Your Satisfaction is recorded under the names of the borrower/mortgagor on the original loan.
If a lender takes longer than 90 days to record it, they can be charged up to $1,500 in penalties. So, in theory, a satisfaction should be recorded within 30-90 days of payoff regardless of what state you work in.
Once you've paid off your outstanding mortgage debt, the lender must prepare and issue a release of mortgage. This document officially discharges you from the debt obligation and removes the lien against the property.
Step 1 Identify the parties. The appropriate parties should be documented on the Satisfaction of Mortgage. Step 2 Fill and Sign. The Satisfaction of Mortgage should be signed by the mortgagee, after it has been issued. Step 3 File and Record the Form.
