Why You Need Owner’s Title Insurance

What is Title Insurance? Owner’s title insurance protects your right to your home. By searching, clearing, and insuring the title to your home before you buy it, your owner’s title policy offers protection for your property rights for as long as you and your heirs own your home. If ownership of your property ever comes into question, an owner’s title insurance policy protects you from expensive legal problems that could result in the loss of your home. How Title Insurance Works: As property changes hands, mistakes and irregularities - often made long before you express interest in the property - can place your ownership in dispute.

Failed to pay real estate taxes Even a simple mistaken the recording of legal documents, Improper execution of legal instruments or the reappearance of undisclosed or missing heirs can result in the loss of your home.
