Title Search & Examination
A title search is a process that is performed primarily to determine the answer to three questions:
- Does the seller have a salable interest in the property?
- What kind of restrictions or allowances pertain to the use of the land (real covenants, easements, or other servitude's)?
- Do any liens exist on the property which need to be paid off at closing (mortgages, back taxes, mechanic's liens, or other assessments)?
A thorough, effective title search when purchasing a home is key to preventing title problems and assuring full value when it comes time to sell your home.
Some possible problems with a home title could be:
- Federal, state or local tax liens
- Liens for work done on the property
- Missing heirs with possible claims on the property
- Boundary or survey disputes
- Other claims on ownership
At Tomassi Law Associates we thoroughly examine the title to the property you plan on purchasing to make sure that none of these problems exist.
We also can take care of title insurance issuance.
