All deeds, conveyances, deeds of trust, mortgages, marriage contracts, and other instruments in writing, affecting or purporting to affect the title to any real estate or personal property situated in this state, which have been recorded and which are defective or ineffectual:
(1) Because of failure to comply with § 18-12-403; or
(2) Because the officer who certified the acknowledgment or acknowledgments to such instruments omitted any words required by law to be in the certificate or acknowledgments; or
(3) Because the officer failed or omitted to attach his seal to such certificate; or
(4) Because the officer attached to any such certificate a seal not bearing the words and devices required by law; or
