Title and lien searches are integral aspects of real estate transactions, ensuring that buyers and sellers can proceed with confidence, knowing that the property in question is free from potential legal and financial risks. At Lichter Law Group, our team of experienced professionals is dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate title and lien searches for our clients in South Florida, helping to facilitate smooth and secure property transactions.
A title search is a thorough examination of public records to determine the legal ownership of a property, as well as any claims, encumbrances, or other issues that might impact a buyer’s rights to the property. This includes verifying the current owner’s title, identifying any outstanding mortgages or liens, and uncovering any easements, restrictions, or other encumbrances that may affect the property’s use or value.
Lichter Law Group’s title search services are performed by our knowledgeable team, who meticulously examine various sources of information, such as county land records, tax assessor records, and court records, to build a complete and accurate picture of the property’s title history. Our thorough approach ensures that potential issues are identified early in the transaction process, allowing for timely resolution and minimizing the risk of costly surprises down the line.
In addition to title searches, our team at Lichter Law Group also conducts comprehensive lien searches for our clients. Liens are legal claims against a property that must be satisfied before the property can be sold or refinanced. They can result from unpaid taxes, contractor disputes, or other financial obligations, and can have significant consequences for both buyers and sellers if not properly addressed.
Our lien search process involves reviewing public records for any recorded liens against the property, as well as investigating the property’s tax status to identify any delinquent taxes or assessments. We also verify the status of any outstanding mortgages and determine whether the property is subject to any pending legal actions or judgments. By uncovering and addressing these potential liabilities, our lien search services help to protect our clients’ interests and ensure a successful transaction.
Once the title and lien search is complete, our team at Lichter Law Group works closely with our clients to address any issues that may have been uncovered. This may involve negotiating with lienholders to secure a release or settlement, working with local government agencies to resolve tax issues, or obtaining necessary documentation to clarify or correct title discrepancies. Our proactive approach and commitment to open communication ensure that our clients are fully informed and involved in the resolution process, and that any issues are resolved efficiently and effectively.
In addition to our title and lien search services, Lichter Law Group also offers title insurance policies to further protect our clients’ interests. Title insurance provides coverage against potential losses resulting from undiscovered title defects or claims, offering peace of mind and security in the event of unforeseen issues. Our team’s expertise in title and lien searches, combined with our access to title insurance products, make Lichter Law Group a one-stop solution for all of your title-related needs.
