Real estate title services 

When you purchase a home, you are given the deed to your property and receive full legal ownership of that property. Having title insurance safeguards ownership of your property, which may be your most significant investment.  

At Central States Land Title Agency Inc., we help prevent title disputes that could prevent you from enjoying your home. We will see to it that your investment is secure.  

Sometimes there are mistakes in a prior deed, will, or mortgage that may cause a problem for you. Title insurance guarantees that there have not been any title problems prior to the time a policy holder takes the title. This insurance can save you money, time, and stress.  

What happens if you don’t purchase title insurance?  

In this case, you accept the seller’s word that the property will not have any problems such as ownership disputes or unpaid taxes. Have questions about a settlement in real estate? Reach out to our titling company.
