Title Clearing Program

Families with inherited real estate may consider themselves homeowners but their ownership may not be properly documented in the deed records. This hampers their ability to qualify for City programs such as the Home Improvement and Preservation Program (HIPP), to obtain home improvement loans, and to sell the property when they are ready. It can erode the family’s chances to pass the property on to their children or to access the equity in their property.

The Title Clearing and Clouded Title Prevention Pilot Program (Program) serves to address this lack of clarity in ownership and to prevent future heirship issues. The Program is open to potential clients with an assumed ownership interest in real property located within eligible geographic areas who have a household income less than or equal to 120 percent of the Dallas Area Median Family Income and who are unrepresented by counsel.

At least four additional calls were received about the incident. At 11:49 p.m., the call log shows an operator was told that the suspects had told the victims "they are coming back" if the correct PIN number was not provided to recover cash from the victim’s ATM.
Even after that entry, the log shows police did not arrive until 12:37 a.m.

“”We’re lucky that no was hurt or even killed. This was armed robbery. And so we’ve beefed up security,” said Dallas City Council Member Adam Medrano.
He arranged a meeting with the victims, concerned neighbors and Police Chief U. Renee Hall.”

New information in the rash of driveway armed robberies in Dallas shows police took nearly three hours to respond to one case on December 2.
