Our Services

 

Our team of knowledgeable and well-versed underwriters works with our clients to resolve any undesirable title issues in order for the client to have a title insurance policy free and clear of any clouds or exceptions that could jeopardize priority or ownership of the land. An underwriter is assigned to each closing to review recordable documents and consider requests for special endorsements from lender or purchaser to minimize the risk to all parties and to avoid coverage gaps. This requires a thorough knowledge of the myriad of options available through ALTA (American Land Title Association) and a firm understanding of the latest policy trends and local/state customs.

 

In addition, we identify and find solutions to potential issues for lenders to the transaction. Loan policies are required by most mortgage lenders in a commercial real estate transaction. These loan policies insure the lender’s interest in the property based on the dollar amount of the loan and the existing exceptions of record.

 

Our underwriting team has worked with every type of complex commercial real estate transaction: acquisitions, dispositions, loan modifications, bankruptcies, workouts, foreclosures and exchanges. Our extensive network enhances our proficiency in national title clearance, removal of liens and title insurance policy issuance in across the nation.
