The papers mostly agree, but two things need an answer before you go further.
The owner's name and the area are not the same on the title and the tax declaration. The lot and block, and the address, agree.

Recorded on the documents
- Title, back page: a real estate mortgage in favour of a bank is entered. No cancellation is shown. A clean back page is not proof of a clean title, so ask the Registry of Deeds for a certified true copy.
Where it is
What to do next
- Ask the owner to explain the difference in name, and to bring the marriage certificate if it applies.
- Ask for the area to be checked against the title's technical description, and the tax record corrected if needed.
- Ask the Registry of Deeds for a certified true copy of the title, to confirm whether the mortgage was cancelled.
