Title Searches

Before settlement, the title should be examined to determine whether there are any liens, encumbrances or other potential clouds on the title. Most institutions providing a mortgage will require that you purchase title insurance.

The title examination or title search is done by us, the lawyer. The buyer pays for the title search and for the title insurance. Your lawyer will examine it to determine that you will receive proper and legal title to the property. Only a lawyer is qualified to evaluate the legal implications that may arise as a result of the title examination.

Trust Susquehanna Abstract Company to handle the settlement for you.
