What Redding records show
Deeds, deeds of trust, reconveyances, assignments, notices of default and of trustee's sale, abstracts of judgment, tax liens and fixture filings are recorded with the Shasta County Assessor-Recorder.
California loans are secured by deeds of trust: after a recorded notice of default and a notice of trustee's sale, the trustee can sell the property at a trustee's sale without a court case.
The Recorder's online index is searched by name: it does not carry parcel numbers or loan amounts, and document images are not online.
The county's online parcel records give the assessment number and address but not owner names, so the owner of record is read from the recorded vesting deed.

Questions
What does a HeritageDeed search in Redding not cover?
The index is by name: documents other than the purchase loans are tied to the property by the owner's name and are marked for verification.
Is this title insurance?
No. It is a search of the public record for one Redding property. A lender closing a loan will still require a title insurance commitment from a licensed insurer.
