Fifteen to 20 pending home sales fell apart that one Jackson title company was preparing to handle. Banks started pulling homes for sale off the market.
First, Jackson County’s real estate market suffered from the foreclosure crisis. Lately, it has been going through another convulsion due to a little-known company that has its name all over mortgage documents in Jackson and around the state.
Hundreds of foreclosures that involved the Mortgage Electronic Registration System, or MERS, now are holding up home sales in Jackson and around the state. A legal case over the company that originated in Jackson County may be headed to the state Supreme Court.
