Why You Need Title Insurance

1

Protects your largest investment.

Title insurance is a one-time fee that protects your property rights for as long as you own your home. It typically costs around 0.5% of the home’s purchase price. You insure everything else that’s valuable to you — your life, car, health, pets, etc., why not protect one of the largest financial investments you will make in your lifetime?
2

Protection against title defects

Title insurance protects the buyer against any defects in the title to the property they are purchasing, such as liens or encumbrances on the property, undisclosed heirs, or prior owners with claims of interest to the property.
3

Verification of title

Title insurance companies perform a thorough search of public records to verify the ownership and legal status of the property. This ensures that the buyer is purchasing a property with a clear title.
4

Coverage for legal fees and expenses

If a title issue arises, title insurance will typically provide coverage for any legal fees and expenses incurred in resolving the issue.
5

Protection against fraud

Title insurance protects the buyer against fraudulent activity, such as forged signatures on deeds or other legal documents.
6

Peace of mind

Title insurance provides the buyer with the peace of mind knowing they are protected against unforeseen title issues that could result in significant financial loss.
7

Lender requirements

Lenders often require title insurance as a condition of providing a mortgage loan to ensure that the property they are lending money on has clear title and is free from any defects.
8

Protection after the sale

Title insurance provides protection for the buyer even after the sale is complete. If a title issue arises after the sale, the title insurance company will typically work to fix the problem or compensate the buyer for any resulting losses.
