Sometimes clouds on title result from matters that could not be found in the public records or are not fully considered in the title search process. To help protect you in these events, it is recommended that you obtain an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance to insure you against the most unforeseen problems.

Owner’s policy – Based on the property’s total purchase price, protects only the home buyer’s interests in the property should a problem with the title arise. An owner’s policy will provide protection against ownership challenges, errors or omissions in deeds, mistakes in examining records, missed liens, forgery and undisclosed heirs, among other things. It is purchased for a one-time fee at closing and lasts for as long as you or your heirs have an interest in the property.

Lender’s policy – Based on the dollar amount of the loan, protects only the lender’s interests in the property should a problem with the title arise.
