What is Title Insurance?

Title insurance is an indemnification contract that insures against loss or
damage.

An owners title insurance policy protects the name of the insured against
loss or damage from any liens or encumbrances on the title that exist prior
to the time the insured took title.

Why Title & Lien Searches Are Needed
Title Search

A Title Search extracts documents from public records to be used for the
examination of title.

A Title Examination is an in-depth review of the title search and court
decision to determine current ownership, title defects, back taxes,
undisclosed liens, legal judgments, forgeries, fraud as well as a host of other
potential legal/financial problems that can arise when purchasing or
refinancing property.

City/Municipal Lien Search

A Municipality is not required to record any existing fines, open permits,
violations or unpaid utilities like water & trash. It is important to know that
title can be transferred with any/all of these existing issues making the new
title holder responsible.



Preparing a Closing Statement (HUD-1)
The Closing Statement

The importance of a closing statement being prepared properly
in the early stages of a Real Estate Transaction or Loan Process is
imperative to avoid any delays and/or financial surprises that could
prevent the closing. Standard to our process we always provide
preliminary closing statement disclosing all known costs and fees.
