DON’T JEOPARDIZE YOUR PROPERTY RIGHTS
Whether you found the perfect home on the first try or you have spent months searching for just the right one, you want to keep it, right? You want to hurry up and have that closing so you can start making memories in your new home - and for years down the road.
What if you encounter encroachment issues with the neighbor?
What if there are judgments attached to the property from years before you bought it?
What if a deed was forged and recorded - and the seller really didn’t have the right to sell?
Believe it or not, these things come up more often than you’d think - and they can jeopardize your rights to your property. Don’t take that chance.
A thorough title search will help uncover many different title issues. Unfortunately, it is possible for things to come to light long after your closing that did not appear on the title search. So, to ensure that it doesn’t disrupt the good vibes you have in your new home - protect your rights and purchase a title insurance policy.
Our title insurance services include:
Title insurance protects the financial investment in a property from unknown title defects that surface after closing. Examples of this could be a judgment against a prior owner, boundary line encroachments, easements, improperly recorded documents, fraud, forgery, missing heirs claiming an interest in ownership, and more.
There are two types of Title Insurance, lenders title insurance and owners title insurance.
Lenders Title insurance is required if you are purchasing a home and borrowing money. Lenders Title insurance only protects the lender in the event of discovered title defects.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TITLE INSURANCE
-
No, an owner’s title insurance policy is not mandatory - though it is highly recommended. Your lender may, however make purchasing a lender’s policy a condition of the loan.

-
The cost of title insurance will vary based on where the transaction is taking place. Some states have fixed premiums, others allow the insurance company to set the cost. Sometimes it could even be a percentage of the contract price. Just remember that title insurance is a one-time fee.
