Maryland Hard Money Lenders. Private Loans in Maryland, Virginia & Washington, DC
Today, I want to talk about something that all the borrowers pay for at closings but typically have little understanding or appreciation for. It is title insurance. Title insurance is a type of insurance policy designed to protect both the owner (real estate investor) and the lender from financial losses related to title defects or disputes that may arise after a real estate transaction has closed. Here’s how it works and how it protects both parties:
Defects in the title of a residential property refer to any issues or problems that affect the legal ownership or rights associated with the property. Such defects result in what is called a “clouded” title. The opposite of the clouded title is a “marketable” or “clear” title, which refers to a title free from reasonable doubt or defects.
A marketable title reduces the legal risk associated with the property in several ways. First, it assures the buyer that the seller has a legal and undisputed right to sell the property. It also gives buyers confidence that they are acquiring a property without hidden claims or encumbrances, minimizing the likelihood of future legal challenges. If you plan to finance the property with a lender, all lenders, including hard money lenders, will require a marketable title before providing financing. A clear title assures them that the property is sufficient collateral for the loan, reducing the lender’s risk.

The finish line is near! You found an excellent property investment opportunity in the DC Metro area. Now you are ready to purchase the real estate property and begin your fix-and-flip – right after you close the deal. Before you begin renovating, you need to finalize the real estate transaction. You will need a good title company.
For many borrowers, choosing the title company is a decision they don’t put much thought in. However, working with the wrong title company can make even a simple transaction a nightmare. Why? First, …
