When you purchase a property, it is important that you protect your investment from past and future legal issues. This can be done with title insurance.

What is title insurance?

Title insurance is a type of indemnity insurance that protects against a loss of title or ownership of a property due to a defect in the original title deeds. Most mortgage lenders require title insurance. Title insurance Boca Raton minimizes loss by protecting the property owner or the lender from any past or future legal claims that may be or have been made on the property.

Who does it protect?
