Five Fun Facts About Title Insurance

* The first title insurance policy was issued in 1871.

* Title insurance protects against claims from defects such as another person claiming an ownership interest in your property, fraud, forgery, and many other items specified in your title insurance policy.

*The three most common title defects are liens (33%), mortgages (19%), and typographical corrections (17%).

*Unlike other forms of insurance, a policy of title insurance requires only one premium to keep you property fully protected for as long as you own it.

* Condominiums are protected by title insurance just like a single-family dwelling. A policy is issued for each condo unit.
