[WSBARP] DOT/Promissory Note

I cannot see why your seller would not still be secured or need to do 
anything as long as payments are being made referencing the debt.  If 
the DOT was valid when granted it seemingly would remain valid.  The 
only possible concern I see is statute of limitations, but I'm not even 
seeing that as an issue assuming I remember the law right on when the 
SOL starts to run on monthly payments (perhaps a big assumption).

As an analogy, if the grantor of the DOT was an individual and died, you 
wouldn't need to get a new DOT from the heirs.  Or if the old LLC had 
conveyed to another person/entity, you wouldn't need a new DOT from them.

And in any case, the new LLC probably would not be the grantor of a new 
DOT, at least not until they can claim by adverse possession or some 
such thing.  They seemingly are not in the chain of title at all.  
Wouldn't the members of the old LLC be the current owners?
