Understanding title insurance

Title insurance is a unique form of insurance that provides coverage for future claims or future losses due to title defects that are already present but not known at the time of the sale or refinance. Unlike traditional insurance, which protects against future events, title insurance covers past title issues that may surface after you've purchased your property. These can include problems such as fraud, forgery, undisclosed heirs, or mistakes in public records.

Two types of title insurance policies

  1. Owner’s Policy: This policy protects you, the property owner, against any losses related to the property’s title. It remains in effect as long as you or your heirs have an interest in the property.
  2. Lender’s Policy: Often required by lenders, this policy protects the lender’s interest in your property until your mortgage is paid off or refinanced.
