Episode 370: What is a Title, anyway? It’s not just another closing fee buried somewhere on the settlement statement. It’s the part of the real estate transaction that proves who actually owns the property, what debts or liens are attached to it, and whether that home can legally transfer from seller to buyer. Chris Oswald from Fidelity Title explains what title insurance does, why Illinois closings are different, what can delay or kill a deal, and how Realtors can be more proactive before problems explode five minutes before closing. This is not glamorous - but it is absolutely Good to Know. Listen now!
