What on earth is the Chain of Title?
The chain of title is a chronological record of all recorded documents affecting the ownership of a property tracing the history of ownership transfers from the original owner to the current one.
Should you be concerned with the chain of title on your new home? Is it clear or clouded? The answer is ABSOLUTELY!
Should you hire a real estate professional who understands the importance of checking for common title issues—such as boundary or easement disputes, undisclosed claims of ownership, errors in legal descriptions, errors in public records, or unreleased mortgages or liens—before you close on your new home? The answer is ABSOLUTELY.
Should you hire a real estate professional who thinks it’s no big deal to skip checking the chain of title? ABSOLUTELY NOT!
With almost 25 years as a Realtor, I have encountered complex title issues that the current homeowner and their agents were unaware of. Make a smart choice when buying or selling your home.
