Title insurance protects against loss from covered title defects and certain risks not found in the public record.
A typical title review includes examining the chain of title, recorded liens, and any encumbrances, followed by a commitment and recommendations for curing.
Delays can occur from missing documents, unresolved liens, or conflicting chain history that require clarification and cures.
In most cases, you can proceed with a title search and insure the risk through a policy.
Endorsements such as lender or zoning protections may enhance your coverage depending on your property and loan.
The time varies, but a standard title search often takes a few days to a couple of weeks depending on record access.
If defects are discovered after closing, a title insurance policy helps recover losses up to the policy limits.
Minor clouds may be cured or insured against; lenders and insurers determine if closing can proceed.
