What We Do
From the initial title search to the final closing, we handle every detail so you can move forward with confidence.
A thorough examination of public records to trace the full chain of ownership, identify liens, easements, encumbrances, and any defects that could affect the property's marketable title.
We serve as a neutral third party to hold and disburse funds, manage documents, and ensure all closing conditions are satisfied before the transaction is finalized.
We coordinate and oversee the closing process, preparing all necessary documents, verifying signatures, and ensuring the deed and mortgage are properly executed and recorded.
We issue owner's and lender's title insurance policies that protect you against undiscovered title defects, forgery, fraud, and other risks that could threaten your investment.
We provide title work, abstracts, and escrow services for foreclosure proceedings, helping lenders and attorneys navigate the process efficiently and in compliance with state law.
Have questions about a property's title status or a pending transaction? We offer consultations to help you understand your options and make informed decisions.
How We Work
Every transaction follows a proven process designed to identify issues early and keep your closing on track.
We review your property details, discuss your objectives, and outline the scope of work needed to move forward.
Our team conducts a comprehensive search of public records, tracing ownership history and identifying any liens, easements, or encumbrances.
If any title defects are found, we work with all parties to resolve them — whether that means clearing liens, obtaining releases, or addressing boundary questions.
We prepare all closing documents, coordinate the signing, disburse funds through escrow, and ensure the deed and mortgage are filed with the county clerk.
