When you’re buying a home, title research is an important way to ensure that your transaction will be smooth and uneventful. The more times that a property has changed hands, the greater the chance that there could be previously undiscovered liens or encumbrances on the title, commonly known as “title clouds.” In the event that there are any clouds on the title, they must be resolved prior to closing, and title insurance will help protect you from being forced to pay correction fees out of your own pocket.

No matter how many times that you’ve done it before, buying or selling a home can be a complicated process that requires a lot of research and paperwork before the property can legally and officially change hands. And the prudent buyer should always include in this process a decision to purchase title insurance to reduce your risk to title defects, commonly known as “title clouds.” Misfiled paperwork, liens on the title, and unknown heirs are just a few of the problems that you can encounter along the way, and, without title insurance, you run the risk of having to pay exorbitant legal fees out of pocket to resolve the clouds on the title.
