A search of the public records is the first step of the title insurance process. It begins with a thorough examination of all documentation that pertains to a specific piece of property in order to evaluate the condition of the title. The main reason to conduct this search is to evaluate the seller's ability to sell the property. Our search will reveal any defects or burdens on the property, including liens, easements, taxes and special assessments.

Once the search is completed, our title examiners put a title commitment together. This sets forth the requirements necessary to complete the transfer of title to the new owner.

Once the title commitment is complete we are able to start the closing procedure. We work closely with your lender and realtor (if applicable) to gather all of the necessary documents and numbers for closing. Prior to closing, we put out a package containing the documents necessary to transfer title and the funds necessary to do so. At the time of closing, our friendly staff will walk you through the process and get you into your new home.


Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ for Title Insurance from Title One, Inc - arrow1Why buy title insurance?

Title insurance is necessary to protect the most important investment you'll ever make - your home. Since land is permanent and can have many owners over time, others may have acquired various rights in the land, such as utility rights, before you come into possession of it. In order to transfer a clean title to a parcel of land, it is first necessary to determine whether any rights are outstanding.

FAQ for Title Insurance from Title One, Inc - arrow1What danger of loss can you face?

If a lender has title insurance and you don't, what possible dangers can you face? As an example, let's say you bought a house for $120,000. You've made a $20,000 down payment, and your lender holds a $100,000 mortgage lien or beneficial interest. Your lender has title insurance coverage protecting his interest up to $100,000. The loan policy protects the lender against loss due to unknown title defects. The loan policy protects the lender's interest, it does not protect you. That is why you need an owner's policy, which can be issued at the same time as the loan policy for a nominal one-time fee.

If the builder of my home already has a policy on the property, why do I need it again when I purchase the land from him/her?

A title policy insuring the builder does not protect you. Also, many things could have happened to the land since the builder's policy was issued. Liens, judgments and unpaid taxes for which prior owners were responsible may be disclosed after you purchase the property - causing you aggravation and costing you money.
