Why do you need secondary market?
In short: to provide liquidity For example, before the secondary market for mortgages a bank would hold the mortgage and gradually get their cash back over many years. With the secondary market they can sell the mortgage, getting back immediate cash for the value of those future cash flows. If I hold stock in a non-traded company I may have to hold the stock for a long time, hoping to benefit from dividends or finding someone to buy it from me. With a secondary market I could create a "sell" order and accept the highest bid in the market, receiving cash for my stock quickly.
What if an investor bought my house and never sent the payoff to the mortgage company and the investor was caught and is currently in jail could the loss be covered by my home title insurance?
If there was a Title company involved the Title Company would have collected and made the payoff, if they did not the Insurance Company would be on the hook to pay. If you sold the home to an Investor, without a Settlement Agent ( Title Co.) you are out of luck and most likely would have to make a settlement with the Bank for the mortgage.
