Florida fish - help! : trying to sell my home and unbeknownst to me (and apparently the last 20 years of owners) our title description shows we own more than we do because the city owns 20 feet of our property dating back to a tax deed in the 90s. Is my only option to work with the city to be deeded that portion of land before selling? If so - does anyone have any connections in Tampa that could help??

Do you have a title insurance policy? Does that policy describe the insured estate such that it includes the portion that appears to be owned by the city?

Fair enough!

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
