Understanding The Need For Title Insurance

June 1, 2024What Is Title Insurance?
There are two different kinds of title insurance policies and each covers a specific type of owner:
- Lender’s or Loan Title Policies.
- Owner’s Title Insurance Policies.
Title insurance is regulated by each state having a department of insurance that generally regulates all forms of title insurance. These governmental bodies are responsible for establishing and enforcing regulation for insurance sold in their state.
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.
Here are several categories that can cloud a title and result in significant risk for a prospective buyer:
* Liens
* Errors
* Claims
* Fraudulent Activity
The title search meticulously seeks out and evaluates any known indication of any of these issues. It is important to know that even the most comprehensive search may not uncover every hidden area of title risk.
