What do title agents do?

Title agents are responsible for certifying the validity of a title on a property. This includes the proper ownership of a clean title. They also can secure title insurance to protect buyers from any undue harm after a sale. Title agents usually work alongside other members of a buyer or seller’s real estate team. Title agents can also act as the closing agent for a real estate purchase.

What benefits can a title agent provide?

Title agents provide buyers with the security they need to successfully purchase a property, through both owner’s title insurance policies and lender’s title insurance policies. They make sure that the seller has the proper ownership of the property they're selling, by diligently and skillfully researching everything from liens to a property’s chain of ownership.
