Real estate title insurance is the best way to secure your property rights into the future when a property changes hands. Title insurance only costs a one-time fee and protects you and your heirs as long as you own the property. There are two types of title insurance policies – and owner’s title insurance and lender’s title insurance. If you take out a mortgage, your lender will take out at a policy to protect its interests, and you should obtain an owner’s policy.
