What is title insurance?
Title insurance is an insurance policy covering the insured party (owner and/or lender) against many types of property loss caused by liens, judgments, undisclosed heirs, document forgery, boundary disputes and easements up to the coverage amount of the policy coverage. The title company reviews all recorded documents related to the property and ensures requirements, related to the ownership of the property, are cleared. Based on the completion of the research and requirements, the insurance company agrees to guarantee clear title to the subject property and provide a title insurance policy.
Closing cost estimates are subject to change without notice and are provided for reference only. Owner’s title policy fee is determined by the Texas Department of Insurance and is approximately 1 percent of the sales price when selling. Fee is $100 if simultaneously issued with the OTP. Mortgage title policy fee will be approximately 1 percent of loan amount if not simultaneously issued with an OTP. Preserve Title Company LLC is a subsidiary of RBFCU Services LLC. RBFCU Services LLC is affiliated with Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union (RBFCU).
