Frequently Asked Questions
Commonly asked questions regarding title insurance processes, escrow management, and property settlement services for both residential and commercial clients.
What is Title Insurance and why do I need it?
Title insurance is a unique form of protection that secures your property rights. It covers you and your lender against future legal costs or losses resulting from ownership disputes, liens, or errors in historical public records discovered after your purchase.
What is involved in a Title Search?
A title search is a rigorous examination of historical public records to confirm the current legal owner and reveal any outstanding mortgages, tax liens, judgments, or easements that could affect your use or ownership of the property.
How does the closing process work?
The closing process is the final step in a real estate transaction where all legal documents are signed, funds are distributed, and ownership is officially transferred. Our team handles the escrow, title clearing, and document filing to ensure a seamless execution.
What are common closing costs?
Closing costs include lender fees, title insurance premiums, search fees, recording costs, and settlement agency charges. We provide a detailed estimate of these costs well in advance of your closing date.
