The Reasons You Need

Title Insurance

A real estate title is an intangible construct that represents a bundle of rights in a piece of property. Titles can vary based on the type of ownership equity and rights they represent.  Real estate purchases require a lot of money and should not be taken without necessary precautions. One way that you can find yourself in a bind is when you buy a title with defects. Title defects can include liens, owner’s debt, and other ownership claims on the property.

Issues with a title can leave you on the hook to remedy them. This can take up much of your valuable time and money. These are things that can be avoided when you purchase title insurance when you buy a property. Title insurance protects against covered title defects such as liens and owner’s debt. It is a way to ensure the secure transference of property for the buyer and the seller. Title insurance is unlike other insurance because it protects against past issues instead of future problems like traditional insurance.
