Note: The Combined Notice for mailing and publication will be created with our software unless you add language that is not in our database. If our software doesn’t support fields for the added language, you will need to provide a Combined Notice in Word format. Examples of fields not included in our software are loan modifications and recording in different counties. The Combined Notice is in Word format so the information can be added as it appears on the NED. Our software generates the Certificate of Purchase and Confirmation Deed. That information will not appear, so it must be included as a reference in the legal description field.
