What is a Title Search?
Before a real estate closing, it is important to know the true ownership history of the property with a title search. This ensures that there are no liens on the property or other title defects.
A property title search is a process of retrieving all associated documents using the owner’s name, address, or parcel number. There are many sources for associated documents, such as the local county clerk's office, county recorder's office, county tax collector office, IRS, etc.
At Tailwind Title & Escrow, we can make sure the title is free and clear before you buy your home or piece of land.
Why Are Property Title Searches Important?
A property title search is typically ordered during escrow when a lender financing a home purchase requests a preliminary report from a title company. For sellers, a title search is important because it can determine if someone else is claiming title to the property, a claim that the seller never owned it, or someone buys the property but doesn’t officially record the title.
For buyers, a title search can help determine who truly owns a property and ensure all existing liens, loans, and judgments are disclosed.
