Find a First American Title Company in Your Area What is Title Insurance? | ||
| Why Title Insurance? When you buy property, you want to be certain it’s yours. But even the most diligent search of the public records could fail to disclose numerous title defects. Things such as a forged will or deed. Or a title transferred by someone under age. A married person conveying property without his or her spouse. Fraudelent impersonations. Secret marriages. Undisclosed heirs. Invalid divorces. False affidavits. Recording errors or other human errors, etc. Once issued, a title policy covers legal fees and any loss resulting from a valid claim. Title insurance protection remains in effect as long as the homeowner, or his or her heirs, owns the property. (See our website “Claims Chronicles” for further claims cases.) | ||
