When a home or other piece of real estate is purchased, the first step is to obtain an ‘abstract of title.’ The abstract of title is a search of the land records and courthouses within the county where the home is located to determine who the legal owner of the property is and if there are any liens, mortgages, unpaid taxes, or judgments against the property. If there is any reason that the title
is not clear, a ‘title opinion letter’ is set forth with things to complete before the title can become a good title and it is transferred during closing. We will help with all of this and more, to get your title to you—legally and without a hitch.
