What type of notice results from publicly recording a title transfer?

1. Actual notice

2. Attorney notice

3. Constructive notice

4. Proper notice

The correct answer is: Constructive notice

A public recording of a title transfer results in constructive notice. This is because recording the transfer creates a public record, accessible to anyone who wants to check the status of a property. This means that anyone who could potentially have an interest in the property, such as a potential buyer or a creditor, is considered to have been given notice of the transfer and any rights associated with it. This type of notice is considered to be fair and reasonable, as it ensures that anyone with a potential interest in the property is aware of any changes in ownership. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the type of notice that results from recording a title transfer. Actual notice typically refers to direct communication or personal knowledge of a fact, and attorney notice is not a commonly used term in relation to recording a title transfer. Proper notice is a vague term that could refer to any of the other types of notice
