The homebuyer typically employs a title company, real estate agent, or attorney to conduct the search for them. These professionals will pull together all the documents to create a complete file known as the \u2018abstract of title.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you do decide to conduct your own home title search, you can find the records at public places like the county courthouse, tax assessor&#8217;s office, or recorder\u2019s office. It is advised to work with an experienced professional for title searches, and your lender will likely require a professional service.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Happens if There is a Title Issue?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If an issue is uncovered during the title search, it must be fully resolved before the property can be transferred to a new owner. A real estate attorney or title company handles this by taking measures such as addressing back taxes, locating heirs, or presenting a death certificate. This resolution process can take anywhere from a few days to several months.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Title Insurance<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Title insurance<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> safeguards both the homebuyer and the lender against financial loss due to title-related issues that may occur during or after a sale. Even experts can make errors during the complex and lengthy title search process, which is why the insurance is needed. Generally, the cost of title insurance ranges from 0.5% to 1% of the property&#8217;s purchase price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A title insurance policy typically covers the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Incorrect signatures on documents, forgery, and fraud\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Restrictive covenants, such as unreported easements<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unknown encumbrances or judgments against a property<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ownership conflicts, including contradicting wills or deeds<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boundary or survey issues that were not recognized at the time of purchase<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Legal expenses associated with defending the title against covered claims<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full Title Protection for a Smooth Home Transition<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Falling in love with a property is only the first step.
