I don't practice in your state. However, in general, this could be messy. If you received a title insurance policy when you closed on your purchase, you should contact the title insurance carrier immediately. If the underlying mortgage was not satisfied or your property released, this could cause a serious problem, but if you have title insurance, this may protect you.

Don't wait - contact the title insurance underwriter IMMEDIATELY.
