Frequently Asked Questions From Realtors
Here we have listed a few answers to frequently asked questions regarding title insurance, property search, liens and more.
General Questions
How Much Do You Charge For Title Insurance?
In most states including NY and NJ, the premium rates are set by the state, meaning that the cost of coverage is the same no matter which company you choose. It is important to hire a knowledgeable title agency because in some cases you may be entitled to a re-issue rate which can result in a dramatic rate reduction.
How Long Does It Take For Us To Clear A Title?
The title process usually takes about two weeks; however, depending on the property and transaction type, this can vary dramatically. Your real estate agent or escrow/title officer can give you updates on the timetable as the closing progresses.
Will The Buyer Get Paid At Closing?
No, you are not required to have title insurance. It is for your protection, however, if you choose not to purchase you can leave yourself open to a potentially devastating loss if the property turns out to have a defective title. If you are carrying a mortgage, the lender will usually require one to protect their interests.
Are Your Title Searches Insured?
All government records and other associated records are searched and gone thru to ensure the property has a clean title and is free of any encumbrances. A final report is completed by legal authorities in the field and is given to the homebuyer to prevent future problems down the road.
