Home Title Companies That Surpass the Rest
Home title companies have existed in the US since the 1850s. We play a vital role, ensuring that property transactions run smoothly.
However, not all title companies are created equal. While title agent licensing varies from state to state, there are few prerequisites to take the title agent exams, and no educational requirements.
At Florida Home Title Company, we pride ourselves in being leaders in the title industry. As qualified lawyers, we have not only met the requirements for the job, but surpassed them. We combine our legal expertise with our knowledge of real estate to offer specialized services.
But what are the advantages of hiring an attorney-run title company?
Title Searches
If you search for information about titles online, you’ll find a number of websites telling you that anyone can perform a title search. Technically, this is true: titles are public records, accessible to anyone who goes down to their county courthouse. In actuality, however, it’s not as simple as that.
Titles are complex legal documents. It takes specific knowledge and experience to demystify titles, and to spot any errors that could render the title defective.
Have you ever read the terms and conditions agreement when you sign up to a social media site, or when you install new software on your computer? Most people will agree that they struggle to read the entire document, let alone understand what it’s saying.
So, when it comes to something bigger than a social media site – like buying a home – don’t you want to know that the person examining these documents is familiar with legal terminology? At Florida Home Title Company, we know what to look for during the title search.
Title Insurance
Not only can we perform the title search, but we are also qualified to issue title insurance. Our legal expertise means that we can draft and prepare the necessary important documents needed to close a transaction. And because we’ve already performed the title search for the property, we have a better understanding of the possible risks you’re insuring against, tailoring title insurance to our clients’ needs.
Escrow and Closing
Once the title is checked and insurance has been issued, we can also manage the escrow account and assist with closing. Again, we are qualified to create these contracts, and have a keen eye to spot any errors or omissions that could jeopardize your real estate deal.
Convenience and Confidence
The biggest advantage of our attorney-run title company is that we simplify this entire process for realtors and mortgage brokers, by providing all the necessary services in one place.
There is a wealth of paperwork between wanting to buy a home and actually owning it. By eliminating unnecessary parties, we minimize errors and make it easier for our clients to purchase their dream homes.
We are also an intentionally small company, choosing to focus our attention on fewer clients. This allows us to provide warm and personalized service, looking after our clientele. As a buyer, seller, or realtor dealing with Florida Home Title Company, you can feel confident that we will return your calls promptly, and in person. And our legal expertise means that we can tackle tough questions and issues as and if they arise.
Buying a home is a life-changing moment. Don’t settle for a title company that is anything but exceptional. With our knowledge and experience, we go above and beyond for every client.
