title company
Property transfer facilitators
A title company verifies legal ownership of real estate and handles the transfer of property between buyers and sellers.
Before a sale closes, the title company searches public records to ensure the property has no liens, disputes, or other claims that could complicate ownership.
They also issue title insurance, which protects against future claims on the property.
The title company found an old lien that had to be cleared before we could close.
