A title insurance policy ensures that your ownership of the property is free and clear of any defects or encumbrances and that you, as the owner, bear no responsibility for loss. Title insurance protects your ownership of the property itself.
We provide two main types of title policies:
Owner’s Policy
This policy is issued to the purchaser or owner of the property, providing a guarantee of free and clear title.
Mortgage Policy
This type of policy protects the lending institution when the lender places a mortgage lien against a piece of property. This policy ensures the lender against any loss arising from a title defect.
Residential
The Closing Department in each of our offices is responsible for the coordination and execution of all aspects of your transaction. Whether it is the sale or the refinance of a piece of property, our office will take care of all of your interests related to the transaction – from the lender to the insurance agent, surveyor, appraiser, and all others involved.
We pride ourselves in making sure your closing goes as smooth as possible. We take time for explanation and make sure all your questions are answered thoroughly. Our staff fully appreciates that clear communication is the key to a successful transaction and we strive to offer that to our clients. We look forward to providing this level of service to you.

Elite Title Company aids you with the preparation of any real estate documents necessary to complete your transaction. A large majority of these documents, including deeds and affidavits, are prepared directly by our attorney to ensure your interests are properly satisfied. Our qualified closing staff prepares Settlement Statements. Elite Title Company provides you with proper documents in a timely manner.
A title search is the legal examination of all current records related to a piece of property to confirm that the seller is the legal owner of the property and to report any outstanding liens or encumbrances against the property. A title search will provide you with very basic information, including the owner of record and property tax information. A title search is used for information only and does not insure the purchaser.
City governments may require, as a part of the re-zoning process, a surrounding owner search. This is to properly identify, for notification, all adjoining landowners.
Elite’s experienced staff is willing to take the time to walk you through the process at your pace. Whether it’s after work or on a weekend, we will always give the extra effort.
