a marketable title.

Correct answer: a clouded title (means that it’s difficult to “see” who the proper owner is). An actual/apparent outstanding claim on the title to real property like old mortgage, an unresolved legal debt/levy by a creditor or some other doubtful link in the chain of title. In other words, a clouded title is any document, claim or encumbrance that might invalidate/impair a title to real property or make the title doubtful (usually discovered during a title search). It is also known as "cloud on title".
