Before any real estate transaction can be consummated, the seller has to prove that he or she holds clear title to the property. If he or she owes back taxes or has any outstanding legal judgments, creditors can put liens on the property title that must be resolved before the property can be sold. In some cases, all that it takes is settling up financial obligations. But some real estate transactions can get stopped dead in their tracks by bigger problems. Title encumbrances are commonly referred to as “title clouds” because they can cast a shadow over the closing.
