What is title insurance?
 

Title insurance is the best way to protect yourself against title defects, which may not appear until after you've taken ownership of the property. Before a title insurance policy is issued, a title report is prepared based on a search of the public records. This report gives a description of the property, along with any title defects, liens, or encumbrances discovered in the course of the title search. Title insurance protects you against title defects that were not discovered in the course of the title search (for example, forged signatures). If such a defect is later discovered, your title insurance would cover you.


How does title insurance protect you?
 

If title problems are severe enough, you could actually lose your house. A title insurance policy protects you and your heirs against title defects for as long as you own the property. The policy represents the title insurance company's responsibility to compensate you for any covered loss caused by a defect in the title, or any lien or encumbrance that was not discovered in the title search. Most title insurance policies do have exceptions, however, so it is important to understand the policy.
