Title insurance policies protect homeowners from issues arising from some defect in their ownership of the property that was not identified or cured prior to closing. In most cases, we are able to offer two types of title insurance – Limited and Standard, each of which are very competitively priced.
Limited title insurance protects a homeowner against errors that existed or occurred before their purchase of their real property up to the face amount of the policy (typically the original purchase price). Standard title insurance covers everything that the Limited policy covers plus a large number of other potential problems, including errors that could occur after you purchase real estate. Standard coverage also provides more financial protection in the event that you need to file a claim by insuring the property for its value as of the time the claim is made up to 150% of its original purchase price.
