Why Realtors Should Team Up with a Title Company
Why Realtors Should Team Up with a Title Company
As a Realtor, you are in the business of helping buyers and investors obtain the real estate they need to fulfill their dreams, whether it is to own a home or make a sound investment. That is why working with a Title Company like Marina Title is imperative to the best interests of your clients and your business. Our job is to ensure that property buyers can acquire the real estate they desire without the costly risks and liabilities of any title or lien issues. Learn what we do and how we help you best serve your valued clients.
What a Title Company Does and Why it Matters
Title consists of the bundle of rights that come with owning a property, such as the right to possess, use, and transfer the property as you see fit. Without clear title, the buyer’s ability to make full use of their new acquisition will be in jeopardy, not to mention the legal problems that may arise if there is a lien or title claim. Once the buyer takes title, it will often times become the buyer’s responsibility to address these issues, which is not only bad for them but for your business.
Our job is to protect your clients from these title problems. Prior to any real estate transaction closing, we conduct an extensive examination of the title of the subject property, searching carefully through every available record to ensure that there are no defects, liens, code violations, or other issues that could negatively impact the prospective buyer. Given that title problems are a big factor in the cancellation of real estate transactions, it is crucial to order a title examination with our company to make sure the buyer receives clear and marketable title.
Our Title Company Goes Beyond Title Examinations
While we use the latest methods and technologies to ensure the most reliable results, we leave nothing to chance when it comes to protecting your client. That is why we also specialize in drafting title insurance policies, which are designed to protect owners from any errors, defects, claims, or other title issues that are unrecorded or unknown. Should any such title-related problems be uncovered in the future, title insurance will cover the cost of defending against legal claims, and if the worst case scenario should occur – losing the property – the insurance company will reimburse your client accordingly.
In addition to title examinations and title insurance, our attorney-owned and operated title company provides general counsel and guidance to Realtors and their clients through the closing process. We will advise you on any potential risks or opportunities, address any title issues that may emerge, and help resolve disputes or disagreements between the parties. In short, we will do whatever it takes to ensure that your closing is smooth and efficient to everyone’s satisfaction.
