Title Search
Your Title Company will work to eliminate risks by performing a search of the public records through our own plant. The search consists of public records, laws and court decisions pertaining to the property to determine the current recorded ownership, any recorded ownership, any recorded liens or encumbrances or any other matters of record which could affect the title to the property. When a title search is complete, title issues a preliminary title report detaining the current status of title.
A preliminary report contains vital information which can affect the close of escrow: ownership of the subject property, how the current owners hold title, matters of record that specifically affect the subject property or the owners of the property and an informational plat map.
