Hello,
The property we are considering is lodging and vacant land. There are 4 parcel numbers involved. We do not know the area values well, wonder about the title and any liens. Would this be the right site for reports on the below parcels? Would this be separate for each parcel ID? Thanks for any insight.
address (note there are some townhomes with this address but are not part of the lodge and vacant land.
N12390 Black River Rd, Ironwood, MI 49938
It may be under Driftwood Properties as owner.

I am seeking guidance on how to obtain the history of a property or chain of ownership on property described in a deed found among my deceased parents’ papers. The deed shows my great-grandmother transferring land to my paternal grandmother in 1949. I hired a title search company to help me research this but I can’t seem to get a progress report from them after 3 months. Can you let me know the best way to research this property? Which report might I purchase to get information on property history, sales/transfers and/or current ownership. There is no street address only a legal description of the land.
Please contact us directly through the Contact page of the site.
