Learn the Importance of Title Insurance!

Title insurance may not be as well-known or as well-understood as other types of insurance, but it is equally (if not more!) important. Title insurance protects your property investments in the event that someone else decides to stake a claim on your personal property. Arrowhead Title is the best title agency at the Lake of the Ozarks, so we know that having an accurate, experienced title insurance company on your side can make all the difference. Read on to learn why title insurance is important and to find out some of the benefits you could enjoy by getting title insurance on your home.



Background Information

By purchasing real estate, you are actually purchasing the legal right to use and occupy the land. It sounds a little strange, but the title to your home is actually a title to the land. It can refer to your rights relating to the use and ownership of the land, or it can refer to the physical document (the deed) that declares you the rightful owner of the real estate.

Protection

Sometimes, title issues can arise. Titles can be threatened by previous issues that are coming up in the present. It can not only be frustrating but can cause a lot of issues for you in the future. It can even threaten your ownership of the home. Arrowhead Title offers a secure risk prevention method that can help protect you from these types of dangers - title insurance!

The experienced title professionals at Arrowhead Title will conduct a careful, detailed search of all of the public land records to make sure no one else has any claims against the property and that there are no hidden issues. Examples of issues that could arise include:
  • Unknown Heirs
  • Errors in the Deeds
  • Mistakes in Public Records
  • Forgeries
  • Invalid Power of Attorney


Accuracy

At Arrowhead Title, we pride ourselves on being accurate with all of our title investigations and the full real estate transaction closing process. Some issues are unforeseeable, however, so having title insurance protects you from financial loss if any problems arise in the future.

As your trusted title company at the Lake of the Ozarks , Arrowhead Title is here to help clear up any misunderstandings you may have about title commitments and title reports. Title Commitments Title commitments are issued when someone is in the process of buying a home or piece of property.
