TITLE INSURANCE
A title is the evidence, of right, that a person has to the
possession and ownership of land. It is possible that someone
other than the owner has a legal right to the property. If
that person can establish that right, they can make demands on the owner
or claim the property outright. An
Owner's Policy is designed to protect you from title defects that existed prior to the issue date of the policy. If a valid claim is filed, in addition to financial loss up to the face amount of the policy, your owner''s title policy covers the cost of legal defense.
Title
Insurance protects against losses attributable to facts or
circumstances that may have occurred in the past. The title
report provides a full examination of the title to real estate
before any transaction involving the real estate takes place
or a title insurance policy is issued.
When a mortgage loan policy is issued, the lender is assured
that the mortgage is a valid lien based on a valid deed.
In addition, it insures the priority of the lien, and that
no loss will occur as a result of lack of legal access and
marketability of title. When title insurance is to be issued
insuring the lien of a mortgage at the time of recording,
the amount of the mortgage shall determine the title rate.

What Does it Cost?
Pennsylvania and New Jersey closely regulate
rates. The one-time premium is directly related to the
value of your home. In
most cases, it is less expensive than your annual auto
insurance. It is a one-time only expense that you pay when
you purchase
your home. However, it continues to provide complete coverage
for as long as you or your heirs own the property.
