COMMON INQUIRIES ABOUT OUR SERVICES

What areas of Oklahoma do you serve?

We serve all 77 counties in Oklahoma.

What is Title Insurance?

Title Insurance protects you against debts and title issues from previous owners that could affect your property.

There are two types of Title Insurance Policies:

Owner’s Policy: Protects you against title defects that could impact your ownership rights. This coverage lasts as long as you or your heirs have an interest in the property. You only pay for an owner’s policy once—there are no monthly or yearly premiums.
Lender’s Policy: Protects the lender against title defects that could affect the priority of their mortgage. This policy is effective for the life of the mortgage.

How long does the closing process typically take?

In Oklahoma, property closings typically take 30 to 45 days from the agreement date. This period covers tasks such as abstracting, obtaining an attorney review, clearing title requirements, and conducting inspections. The process might be longer if there are complications. For cash purchases or pre-approved financing with no issues, it could be shorter, around 15 to 30 days.

How do I get started with a 1031 exchange?

The first step is to consult with one of our experienced 1031 exchange facilitators. They will guide you through the entire process, from identifying a replacement property to completing the exchange within the required timeframe. We handle all the necessary paperwork and ensure compliance with IRS regulations.

What are the benefits of using a professional for title searches and closings?

Using a professional for title searches and closings offers several advantages:

Expertise: Our team has extensive knowledge of local real estate laws and regulations, ensuring a thorough and accurate closing process.
Risk Mitigation: We identify and resolve potential title issues before they become costly problems, protecting your investment.

What is an abstract?

An abstract is a full and complete record of all matters filed of public record that affect ownership rights to a particular piece of real property. The abstract of title is used in real estate transactions to help buyers and lenders assess the legal status of the property before completing a purchase or granting a loan.

An abstract typically includes…

Chain of Title: A chronological list of the property’s previous owners and how the title has transferred over time.

Legal Descriptions: Details about the property’s boundaries and dimensions.

Encumbrances: Any claims or liabilities against the property, such as mortgages, liens, or easements.

Exceptions and Reservations: Any rights or conditions that might affect the title, such as rights of way or mineral rights
