These highly trained title professionals conduct a search and examination of the public records to find and isolate title risks. As the records are generally indexed by name and not by property location, finding pertinent information can be tedious. The title industry invests millions of dollars to duplicate records and index them into geographic title databases to make the process more efficient.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;2.

In many states, various extended policies and expanded coverages are offered to address title issues that may arise after the policy date, including false claims by identity thieves, neighbors building encroachments, and more.<\/li>\n<li>A Loan Policy is generally required by lenders (and purchasers of loans in the secondary mortgage market) to provide insurance that their mortgage liens are valid and enforceable, and that they have priority over other liens or claims.
