What are notes on a house or property? how do you find them? Is that information available to the public?

The note itself spells out all the terms for a loan; i.e. interest, payments, terms. These are not available for the public, but the public does have access to the Deed of Trust which shows when the Deed was issued and for what amount, you also have access to the Warranty Deed which shows when the property was purchased and the price. These two docs are often accessible on the internet through your counties government website or register of deeds office.

Notes on a property are slang for loans.

Most towns/counties have websites that you can look up deeds and mortgages, that is all public record.

Call the town clerk of the property you are interested and ask them what the appropriate website address is.

Notes are used in conjunction with a mortgage which show how much an owner owes on a home or how much it was mortgaged for--yes they are in the public hall of records I believe.
