A processor who examines the public record behind a property so a transaction can close on clean title.
What they do
- Review deeds, mortgages, municipal liens, judgment liens and outstanding property tax dues
- Check each one against a documented search protocol rather than personal habit
- Assemble the search file and flag defects and encumbrances for review
- Prepare the title documents the closing team needs
- Work to your jurisdictions and your checklists
Works with
Your closing team. The processor finds and documents an issue; the opinion on what a defect means for the transaction stays with your licensed team.
