What Will The Title Company Do For You?
When you are ready to close on a home, the title company is responsible for managing and transferring the title. The first step is to examine the public land records to investigate information surrounding the title and the property you are purchasing. The search of land records will determine:
- That the seller of the property is, in fact, the legal owner and that all such owners are party to the contract.
- That the “estate” or degree of title, which you have agreed to buy, is currently and accurately vested in the seller.
- The presence, if any, of open mortgages, judgments or other liens, which must be satisfied before a “clear” title can be conveyed to you.
- Existing restrictions, easements or rights of way for roads, public utilities, etc., which may limit your rights to use of the property or grant rights to others who are not owners.
- The status of property taxes and other public or private assessments.
These matters of title will be reflected in a commitment for title insurance, which will be issued to the mortgage lender and to you at or near the time of closing.
In addition to the above, Bridge Title also provides escrow management services and full review of closing documents.
