Mortgage with Judgement

I currently have a judgement from an old landlord and I need to pay it off as I am in the process of buying a home, however I cannot find him.  I have tried everything to find this person and pay the debt.  The mortgage broker states that he needs the paper of "satisfaction and release", not just paid.  How do I get this timely for my mortgage loan app?  The clerk at the court states that if I did pay it there they would send him notice for the release however, that could take over 30 days.  Anyone ran into this before?

Re: Mortgage with Judgement

Is the landlords info on your credit reports?  It should be or if a collection agency was involved, they're info would be on your reports.

 

You might get more looks at your topic in the mortgage section of myfico.
