Title Insurance

D. Stephen Parsons, P.A. is a qualified agent for LandAmerica Transnation Title Insurance and Stewart Title Insurance Company.

Buying a home is, for many of us, the most substantial, single investment we'll ever make. Most homeowners provide for the safekeeping of their homes by insuring them against hazards such as fire, theft and weather damage. Yet, another hazard can pose an even greater risk to homeownership; defects in the title.

What is title? Title is a collective term that makes up your legal rights to own, possess, use, control and dispose of land. Title takes into account all previous ownership, uses and transfers. In order to legally transfer real estate property, a title search must be performed, and in most cases the title must be determined as clear or free of defects or encumbrances. Title insurance is an insurance policy that protects against future loss should the title condition be any different than when the policy was written.

At D. Stephen Parsons, P.A., we do not send our title search request out to a third party. We employ our own title searchers who do an extensive search to assure your property is free and clear of any liens or title defects before settlement.

Should you have any questions regarding title insurance please contact our office and speak to one of our knowledgeable real estate coordinators.
