Searches and reportsThree steps from contract to keys.
Closing has a lot of paper, but the path is short. Here is the plain version.
Send us the contract
A realtor, lender or buyer opens a file with the signed contract and the contact details. That starts the title work.
We search and clear the title
We read the public record for owners, mortgages and liens (claims for unpaid debts), tell everyone what we find, and start fixing anything that needs it.
You sign and get the keys
At closing we go over the numbers, collect signatures, handle the money and record the documents. Keys change hands once funds are paid out.

From a first home to a commercial deal, this is what we handle.
