Title insurance protects you and your lender if someone challenges your title to your property because of title defects that were unknown when you bought the policy. Most lending institutions will not loan money to purchase a house or other property unless you buy a "mortgagee" title policy. These online title company related resources are offered to help you in understanding title insurance, and provide links to companies providing this service.
