I have a question. I bought a manufactured home in 2004. I used a title company as well as my credit union at closing. The affidavit of affixture was signed at closing. Title company informed me in 2011 that they said that I must have gotten it back and I needed to sign another one and back date to the original document date. I would not have over looked an import document as that. The original I sign also had title co. name and address of the title company as who it should be returned to. The issue is I notice that the parcel # is not accurate on what they want me to sign again as well I don't understand why it needs to be back dated. If they didn't get the approval and they submitted it to be registered? Why not just ask that agency for a copy? Instead of having us sign new papers?
If any one has an answer or knows of a good real estate attorney that practices in Michigan please let me know?

Hello m:

Yuppers, that's what I'd do.

Ask the title company to correct the affidavit they want you to sign, reciting the correct number. And don't back-date it. If they want it to be effective on the previous date, for some reason, insist that it recites that (effective such-and-such date), but shows the date on which you actually sign it.

I agree, always have correct date, it can show it is a correction for previous one, I would not back date either
