What is Title Insurance?
Think of title insurance as a safety net when purchasing, refinancing, and selling homes. Title insurance protects you against issues that can arise such as undisclosed heirs, forgery, errors in public record, and other property related matters.
Why do I need title insurance?
In certain states Title insurance is not required and therefore not recommended. New York state requires title insurance due to the extensive property records recorded by the state. Some states have lost or damaged records which means when a property is insured there is nothing to insure that dates back to the beginning of property purchase in the United States. In states with extensive records, legal professionals are required to examine and write title insurance to protect buyers against the long history defining a property and the rights to it.
