Title examination: the study of ownership history records and matters related to ownership interests in a property.

Determine whether you’d like sole or joint ownership. Sole ownership carries the name of a single owner and is transferable. Joint ownership with Right of Survivorship can involve multiple owners on the title, each of whom owns an undivided interest in the property. If an owner dies, ownership is equally shared among the survivors. Additional options exist, however Sole and Joint are the most common in residential real estate ownership.
There are five different types of deeds: general warranty deed, special/limited warranty deed, quite claim, sheriff’s deed and fiduciary deed.
A survey is a drawing of a property which reflects improvements, boundary lines and encroachments. Included details are contingent upon surveyor requirements. Surveyors are legally authorized to certify things such as whether allocated improvements exist within boundary lines, in which flood zone a property is located, the compliance of structures and public right of way. Residential lenders are known to require surveys prior to closing as a survey is the sole document which confirms that the legal description of the deed matches the property being purchased.
An easement is an interest in land, owned by someone who is not the owner of the whole parcel. For example, utility companies are granted easement onto private property in order to perform maintenance, installation, etc. In addition, a share driveway is considered an easement. In addition, land which benefits from an easement is called a “dominant estate”. Land which is burdened by an easement is known as a “servient estate”. Easements normally last forever, however they do not normally give a holder the right to exclusive possession.
Escrow refers to the third party who holds an initial home deposit on behalf of the buyer and seller involved in a real estate transaction. The money is held by an escrow agent until closing.
