Title Insurance
We provide both lender's title insurance as well as owner's title insurance coverage through one of our top-rated title insurance underwriters. Title insurance is an insurance policy that covers the loss of ownership interest in a property due to legal defects and is often required if the property is under mortgage. The most common type of title insurance is a lender's title insurance, which is paid for by the borrower but protects only the lender.
However, owner's title insurance can be taken out as a separate policy and protects the buyer's equity in the property. For more information on owner's title insurance, visit the American Land Title Association page here.
Title Opinions
A title opinion is the written opinion, based on our search of the property records at the County Clerk's office, describing the current ownership rights in the property, as well as the actions that must be taken to make the stated ownership rights marketable.
