Common Questions
Title insurance, in plain language.
What types of transactions does 1836 Title handle?
We provide title insurance, insured closings, settlement, and escrow services for residential, commercial, and farm & ranch properties, along with title examination and reporting for right-of-way, wind, solar, and other land projects throughout Texas.
What is title insurance?
Title insurance protects an owner or lender from covered financial losses caused by certain defects in title that existed before the policy date. Depending on the policy and the claim, the title insurer may defend the insured’s title or reimburse a covered loss up to the policy limits.
What kinds of title issues can a policy cover?
Coverage can include certain ownership claims, liens, recording defects, forgery, undisclosed interests, and other matters addressed by the policy. Coverage is subject to the policy’s terms, exclusions, exceptions, and requirements, so contact your escrow officer with a question about a specific transaction.
Can I close remotely?
Often, yes. Except in limited circumstances, the 1836 Title team can coordinate a closing at a convenient location. Ask your escrow officer early so the signing method and timing can be confirmed.
Protect your funds from wire fraud.
Never rely on an unexpected email or last-minute message changing wire instructions. Before sending funds, independently call your known 1836 Title contact at a verified phone number and confirm the instructions verbally. We will not be offended by extra verification.
