Defects & Encumbrances: How Do They Affect Your Title?

Image
When  closing on a home at the Lake of the Ozarks , it's easy to get wrapped up in the excitement of finalizing the deal and getting moved in. So much so, that many buyers don't even consider the possibilities of the sale not going through or the potential problems that could arise after the sale is final. There are many things on the back end of the real estate process that most buyers and sellers don't see or even consider until there's a problem that needs to be addressed. This week,  Arrowhead Title  will be discussing title defects and title encumbrances and explain how they affect a title to real property. What is a Title Defect? A title defect is a legal claim or circumstance that hinders the verification of the title and identification of the true owner of a real property.

4 Substantial Benefits of Title Insurance

Image
Title insurance offers homeowners many great benefits.  Because of this, it is quite possibly one of the most valuable purchases in homeownership you will ever make.   While they may not be tangible or as easily identifiable, the advantages of title insurance are substantial. Here is a quick look at 4 of the benefits, courteous of the team at  Arrowhead Title, Inc. 1. Preventative Assistance A title search is conducted before a title policy is ever issued.  The goal of this search is to uncover any problems before the sale of the home closes. If issues are revealed, the buyers and sellers will have an opportunity to resolve them before the closing date. Depending on the severity of the issues, the buyers may choose to walk away from the deal altogether. 2. Protection From Unforeseen Problems Before a title policy is issued, the agency conducts a thorough title search in an attempt to uncover any potential issues with or threats to the title in question....

Protect Your Investment with a Homeowner's Title Policy

Image
Title insurance offers financial protection against title problems that might not be found in the public records, are inadvertently missed in the title search process or that may arise from fraud or forgery. The title policy required by a lender covers only the lender’s interest in a property. That's why it's strongly suggested that every buyer purchase title insurance that covers their interest as well. The homeowner’s policy, purchased at closing, provides coverage for the homeowner. If your home’s title is challenged, based on a situation covered in the policy, the title insurer will either perfect (establish a valid title) or pay for defending against the challenge and will either make perfect the title or cover the costs in the case of a valid claim. Types of Owner's Policies There are two types of Owner’s title insurance policies certified by the American Land Title Association® (ALTA®) – the Owner’s policy and the Homeowner’s policy. The Owner’s policy prot...
