WHAT DOES A TITLE COMPANY DO FOR YOU?

A title company makes sure that the property title (proof of ownership) to a piece of real estate is legitimate and then issues title insurance for that property. Title insurance protects the lender and/or owner against lawsuits or claims against your property that result from disputes over its title.

Title companies generally act as the combined agent of the insurance company, the buyer, the seller, and any other parties related to a real estate transaction, such as mortgage lenders. The title company reviews title, issues insurance policies, facilitates closings, and files and records paperwork.

If your title company does not do a thorough job in its research and examination, then your property may not belong solely to you and others may retain an interest in it.

VUE title provides you with professional title examiners that assure that your property title is without liens, encumbrances or defects.

  • What is Title Insurance?

    There are any number of issues that can cause problems with the title of your home, from debts incurred by previous owners, to code violations, to legal complications, and more. For example, unpaid HOA fees or property taxes can cause a lien to be placed against the property, or a previous owner’s heir could still have a claim on the home’s title.

    The last thing you want is to put down a significant amount of money on a home, only to find that an unexpected issue renders the title invalid.

    Title insurance is a type of insurance policy that is meant to protect homebuyers, as well as lenders, from issues that may arise after the title search is completed. We will talk through your options with you to determine if title insurance is right for you.

  • Tips to Avoid Wire Fraud

    1. Understand your Title company’s process for wiring funds and confirm all wiring instructions either in person or by phone with a known number prior to transferring funds.

    2. Consider using a cashier’s checks instead of wiring funds.

    3. Avoid emailing financial information. If your providing financial information online, be sure the website it secure by looking for a URL that begins with “https”.

    4. Be wary of opening attachments and downloading files from emails. They can contain malware that can compromise your computer’s security.

    5. Keep your devices, operating systems, browsers, and security software up to date.

  • What is a Lenders Policy

    Description What is a Lender’s Policy?

    A lender’s policy, also known as a loan policy or a mortgage policy, protects the lender against loss due to unknown title defects. It also protects the lender’s interest from certain matters which may exist, but may not be known at the time of the sale.

    This policy only protects the lender’s interest. It does not protect the purchaser. That is why a real estate purchaser needs an owner’s policy. here

  • Why does the buyer need title insurance?

    As a purchaser, you will need evidence that your investment in your property is free of title defects. Without title insurance, you may not be fully protected against errors in public records, hidden defects not disclosed by the public records, or mistakes in examination of the title. As a result, you may be held fully accountable for any prior liens, judgments, or claims brought against your new property. The title insurance is a guarantee that you are obtaining a clear title to your real estate, unencumbered by any legal attachments that might limit or jeopardize ownership. If this should occur, your title policy insures that you will be defended at no cost against all covered claims up to the amount of the policy.

  • What is Escrow

    An escrow account is basically a temporary pass through account held by the escrow holder. The escrow holder is a neutral third party that holds funds and related documents in a secure manner while the parties work through the details of the real estate transaction. Escrow ensures the conditions of the real estate transaction have been met before the property and/or money change hands.
