What is a title abstract?
A title abstract is a summary of the property’s legal history, including information on previous owners, transfers of ownership, and any legal actions or claims on the property. It provides a detailed look at the property's title to ensure that there are no issues that could affect the sale.
Why is title research important for real estate transactions?
Title research is essential to ensure that the property’s title is clear of any liens, unpaid taxes, or legal claims. This protects both the buyer and the lender from potential legal issues that could arise after the transaction is completed.
How can title issues be resolved before closing?
If title issues are discovered during the title search, our team works to resolve them before closing. This may involve clearing liens, negotiating settlements for unpaid taxes, or resolving boundary disputes to ensure that the property’s title is clear.
Do I need title insurance if I have a clear title?
Yes, even with a clear title, title insurance is recommended to protect against future claims or issues that may not have been discovered during the initial title search. Title insurance provides financial protection in case a claim against your ownership arises after the sale is completed.
