About Title Insurance
Title insurance protects owners and lenders with the assurance of clear uncontested ownership of title to real property. Title agents, working with affiliated professionals – abstractors, examiners, surveyors, settlement companies, county clerks, and closers – research and resolve all issues related to the assurance of title. The title agent also works with a title insurance underwriter to provide any of a number of policies called for in the transaction.
