Cloud on title

Term · Law · MLC-T-LAW-001030

An outstanding claim, encumbrance, or defect that impairs the clear ownership of real property. This issue suggests that someone other than the recorded owner might have a legitimate interest in the property. Such a defect can prevent the sale or transfer of the property until it is resolved, often through a quiet title action.
