FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TITLE INSURANCE:
Do I need Title Insurance?
Most definitely! Title insurance is a means of protecting yourself from financial loss in the event that problems develop regarding the rights to ownership of your property. There may be hidden title defects that even the most careful title search will not reveal. In addition to protection from financial loss, title insurance pays the cost of defending against any covered claim.
My Lender requires Title Insurance, won't that protect me?
Not necessarily. There are two types of title insurance. A Lender's Policy insures that your lender has a valid lien on the property. Most lenders require this type of insurance, and typically require the borrower to pay for it. An Owner's Policy, on the other hand, protects your interest in the property. Title troubles, such as improper estate proceedings or pending legal actions, could put your equity at serious risk. If a valid claim is filed, in addition to financial loss up to the face amount of the policy, your owner's title policy covers the cost of legal defense.
How much does Title Insurance cost?
The one-time premium is directly related to the value of your home and is set by state law. Typically, it is less expensive than your annual auto insurance premium, and a Lender's Title Insurance Policy can be obtained at a reduced rate when purchased in conjunction with the Owner's Title Insurance Policy. It is a one-time only expense, paid when you purchase your home. Yet it continues to provide complete coverage for as long as you own the property.
