While title insurance is a one time expense, it can be tough for a buyer who lacks a lot of funds in reserve to come up with such a substantial expenditure at closing. Real Estate title insurance can easily run into thousands of dollars in a home purchase.
Real Estate title insurance policies however differ from other types of insurance as there is no monthly premiums .Title Insurance is a one time expense covering the owner until the property is sold to the next buyer. One of the questions I often get by my clients is “should I purchase title insurance’?
Let me first explain the definition of title insurance is and what this special insurance covers. Real Estate title insurance is an insurance that covers financial loss from defects in title to real property and from the invalidity of mortgage liens.
A title policy is put in place to protect an owner’s or lender’s financial interest in a property against loss due to title defects, liens or other matters. This type of insurance will defend against a lawsuit attacking the title as it is insured, or reimburse the insured for the monetary loss incurred, up to the dollar amount of insurance provided for in the policy.
