Title Insurance is a type of insurance policy that is purchased by buyers and sellers of real estate to protect them against any potential losses that may arise from unforeseen issues or defects with the title.

Title Insurance can cover a wide range of issues, such as liens, encumbrances, forgery, fraud, and errors in public records. Protecting your investment with title insurance is a crucial part of the home buying process.

All lenders require borrowers to obtain Title Insurance to issue a loan. This is because, without Title Insurance, lenders (and buyers in general) run the risk of losing their investment in the event of any title-related issues or defects.

The cost of Title Insurance can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the location of the property, the value of the property, and the specific type of policy being purchased. In our area it’s less than a couple thousand bucks.

By working with a knowledgeable Realtor who can suggest the right Title Insurance providers, buyers can rest assured their investment is protected.
