Each state has a certain statute of limitations for security instruments. The instrument should be recorded as soon as it's executed in order to preserve the interest of the lender in the property. If the lender doesn't record the security deed immediately it can be recorded any time during the statute of limitations. However, subsequent liens that have already been recorded would take precedence.

Deeds cannot be "contested". There is no special legal procedure for contesting a deed as there is for contesting a will. If you think there was fraud, undue influence, forgery or if you think you have an interest in the property then you must bring a lawsuit in a court of equity. You must provide evidence to support your claim and the judge will render a decision. You need to consult with an attorney who specializes in litigation regarding land ownership.

What is the statute of limitations for a seller of land sold in CT where a land dispute has arose on the sold property between the buyer and abutting neighbors?

There are so many different aspects to the answer that you need to consult with an attorney in your jurisdiction. The best one to call would be the attorney who represented you at the time of purchase. If there was title insurance policy you may be covered. You may have rights if you acquired by a warranty deed. There isn't really a statute of limitations for land disputes. They must be resolved in order to clear the title. If your question concerns a statute of limitations for bringing a suit against the seller then you need discuss that issue with an attorney who can review your situation, study the controlling laws and explain your options.
