What exactly does a Title Company DO?

Simply put, a title company ensures that the title to a piece of real estate is legitimate - and then issues title insurance for that property. Title insurance protects lenders, buyers, and sellers against potential lawsuits or claims against the property (which can arise over title disputes).

At Ticon Title Company, we also maintain escrows accounts, containing the funds needed to close on a piece of real estate, which ensures the money is used ONLY for its intended purpose (settlement and closing costs). 

Upon the formal closing stage, a Ticon Title agent produces all the necessary documentation, guides each party through the processes, collects closing costs, distributes the money appropriately, and finally, ensures that the new titles, deeds, and other pertinent documents are filed with all the appropriate entities.
