What Is Title Insurance & Why Is it Necessary?

Title insurance is critical to any real estate transaction, offering protection against potential legal and financial risks associated with property ownership. It safeguards parties involved in commercial and residential transactions by providing clear title to the purchased property. A "clear title" means no outstanding liens, claims, or disputes that could jeopardize your ownership rights.

In Texas, the title investigation process is especially vital as it mitigates potential risks arising from:

Errors and omissions
Mistakes made in examining records
Forgery
Undisclosed heirs
Missing heirs
Unpaid tax liens
Contractors liens

Title insurance protects buyers, sellers, and lenders by providing coverage against financial losses resulting from title defects. Without it, unresolved defects could lead to significant legal disputes, financial burdens, or even loss of ownership rights.

How Does Title Insurance Work?

The process begins with a thorough title search conducted by experienced professionals. This search examines public records to identify and resolve issues with the property's ownership history before the transaction is finalized.

Once the title is clear, a title insurance policy is issued, providing the buyer and lender (if applicable) assurances of ownership and protection against future claims or disputes.

Unlike other forms of insurance, title insurance involves a one-time premium paid at the time of the property closing. This policy remains in effect if you or your heirs retain an ownership interest in the property.

Investing in title insurance gives you peace of mind, knowing your real estate investment is legally secure and safeguarded against unforeseen complications. Whether you are purchasing your dream home or a commercial asset, title insurance is an indispensable safeguard in any Texas real estate transaction.

Attorneys Can Assist with Transactions

In the 2023 case of Moehrl v. The National Association of Realtors, the United States District Court of Northern Illinois ruled that agents representing both buyers and sellers must be more transparent when disclosing their fees to all parties involved, giving buyers more leverage when it comes to negotiating rates based on services provided.

If you’re thinking of selling your home or buying a home listed as “for sale by owner,” a skilled attorney can take the complication and frustration out of the transaction for a fraction of what agents would typically charge. Whereas agents usually around six percent of the total cost of the sale to cover the buyer’s and seller’s agent fees, an attorney does not work on commission and can handle the contract and the steps of the transaction through their own fee structure. For the sale of even a modest property, trusting an attorney experienced with titles, contracts, and other aspects of a real estate transaction could amount to thousands of dollars in total savings. At Jackson, Landrith & Kulesz, we can assist with transactions that are both “for sale by owner” and from sellers listing through a traditional agent.
