Not exactly. The person with title to a property is the person who legally owns it. A deed and a title are not the same thing. A deed is a legal document that transfers the title from one person to another.

What agencies should you contact for a missing house title?
If by a missing house title you mean a deed, you can obtain a copy from the land records office if the deed was recorded. Title to real property is evidenced by a deed.
If you buy a house why would the sellers name still be on the title?
It would mean you didn't actually buy the house. The purchase of a house usually goes with the land beneath it (other than a condo), and this would be described in the deed (the title) that you received at "closing" when you paid for the house. Therefore, if you have the deed naming you as the grantor, then the seller's name is no longer on the title. If you didn't get a deed, then you don't own the house.

Can your boyfriend be on the title or deed of the house if your father is cosigning for you?
The title and deed have nothing to do with the loan. Nothing. So anyone you agree to can be on the deed but you and your dad will be financially responsible for the house. In my opinion, MY opinion, it is foolish to have "a boyfriend/girlfriend" on a deed to a house. It is very easy to get in civil court trouble this way. I would also surmise that your dad would not agree to this situation. Y-THINK-Y
