Most buyers sign for title insurance at closing without really knowing what it protects them from. Here's what you should know. ๐
What title insurance actually covers:
1. Fraud or identity theft that occurred before your purchase
2. Forged deeds in the chain of title
3. Unknown heirs claiming ownership
4. Unpaid liens from a previous owner
5. Errors or omissions in public records
6. Legal defense costs if a claim is filed against your property
How much title insurance do you need?
The home buyer should insure the full purchase price of the property. Your lender only requires coverage for the amount of your loan โ not the full value. That gap is what leaves buyers unprotected.
It's a one-time premium at closing. No monthly fees. No renewals. And it protects your ownership for as long as you hold that title.
