Questions
Why is title insurance necessary for property purchases?
Title insurance protects against financial loss from hidden title defects like forged documents or unresolved liens. It covers legal defense costs and ensures ownership rights remain protected.
What's the difference between lender and owner title policies?
Lender policies protect mortgage providers for the loan amount, while owner policies safeguard buyers' equity. Both are recommended for complete protection during property transactions.
Do I need title insurance for newly constructed homes?
Yes, as new home sites may have prior owner claims or contractor liens. Title insurance ensures clear ownership of both land and improvements during new construction projects.
How does Title One handle complex real estate transactions?
Our team conducts thorough title research, resolves hidden liens, and collaborates with all parties to address challenges in REO, short sale, and commercial transactions.
What services does Title One provide for refinancing?
We issue updated title commitments, verify lien releases, and provide lender policies during refinancing while leveraging existing owner policies for potential discounts.
