Plain-English Summary
Section 15-1509.5 is a short disclosure requirement that rides along with the deed and title-transfer rules in Section 15-1509. Any deed executed under this Article, or a judgment vesting title through a consent foreclosure under Section 15-1402, must state the name of the grantee or mortgagee, along with the name of a contact person, that party's street and mailing addresses, and a telephone number.
The requirement gives anyone examining the title, or trying to reach the new owner about the property, a built-in point of contact -- information that dovetails with the notice-to-occupants and municipality-notice provisions elsewhere in this Part, which similarly aim to make sure someone can be reached about a foreclosed property once it changes hands.
