House Deeds/Title
(Preview)
Did you check your title to ensure the lender had been removed, once the loan was paid in full? If you have no need to borrow again, make sure is has been deleted, or you or rellies will be unable to sell until such time as it has been registered as "clear", in NSW at least.
