The decision to sell your home isn’t one that most people take lightly. Sometimes it’s a matter of pure necessity, such as a work transfer or a little belt tightening. Sometimes your starter home no longer suits your needs and you need to sell your home to make a down payment on a larger home. Whatever the case, you’re definitely going through an emotionally challenging time and you need the sale to go forward smoothly. That’s where we come in!
First National Title is Arkansas’ largest independent title company, with 25 locations throughout the Natural State and a team of over 225 of the most customer-focused title and closing professionals in the industry. The past year has been one of the most challenging times for all of us, and we believe that our customers deserve to work with a company that treats them like family. Our clients are the reason that we’re in business, and far too important to hand off to agents in a call center environment. We operate independent of ownership by a real estate agency or financial institution, and you will always be able to deal with an agent in or near your community when you’re getting ready to sell a home or an investment property. We provide title searches, title examination and escrow/closing services for all real estate transactions, (including 1031 tax exchanges). We also offer owner’s and loan title insurance policies to help you protect your investment in the event that there are any clouds on the title.
Before a property can be sold, the owner has to be in a clear position to transfer the title. The title to the property needs to be clean and free from any liens or encumbrances. Title defects are commonly known as “title clouds,” and they must be resolved before the property title can be transferred. As the owner, you need to be sure that your title doesn’t have any liens and/or encumbrances that could block the sale. These include delinquent taxes, child support payments, legal judgments, and the list can go on and on. If there are any issues, our team of title researchers will find them and help you resolve them so there are no surprises at closing.
