Why do I need Title Insurance?

Your home is the single most important and costly asset you will probably ever own. Problems with the title to your property can limit your use and enjoyment of real estate, as well as bring financial loss. Protection against hazards of title is available through a unique coverage known as Title Insurance. Unlike other kinds of Insurance that focus on possible future events and charge an annual premium, title insurance is a one time payment and is a safeguard against loss arising from flaws and defects already existing in the title.

Did you know that the Title industry helps strengthen America? Here are just a few examples:

• We protect children’s well-being.

• Collect $325 million in past due child support annually enabling children to be properly cared for. We protect people from unseen dangers.

• Work with law enforcement to prevent and apprehend people committing fraud through real estate transactions

• Collect $1.75 billion in delinquent Federal taxes annually, lessening the tax burden for everyone.

The title industry is an integral and vital part of our country’s real estate market that benefits us as individuals and as a country.
