Lender’s Policy
Lender’s title insurance protects the lender from title defects such as fraudulent acts or prior liens that could prevent the mortgage from being valid and enforceable against the property. It also insures the lender is in a first-lien position in the event of a default or foreclosure. It helps ensure the mortgage will not be hampered by unknown encumbrances. But if some problems are uncovered during the lender’s title search, it could hinder the present owner’s ability to sell or the buyer’s ability to borrow.
Owner’s Policy
Owner’s title insurance protects the new buyer. After such a large investment, no one wants to discover after the transaction there are old or unpaid liens from the previous owner on the property, which would prevent the new buyer from selling the property cleanly down the line. If title defects are missed during the title search, title insurance provides financial protection for expenses related to the issue.
