What is Title Insurance?

Title insurance protects your ownership interest of your property from losses incurred as a result of unknown title defects or other covered matters that exist at the time of your purchase, but are unknown to you at that time.         

 

What Does Title Insurance Cover?

  • Someone else claiming an interest in your title
  • Fraud, forgery and false impersonation affecting the validity of your title
  • Existing liens against the title including realty tax arrears and municipal utility charges
  • Violations of municipal zoning by-laws
  • Many forms of encroachments onto the property or adjoining land
  • Existing work orders
  • Lack of legal access to the property
  • Unmarketability of land due to adverse matters that an up-to-date survey/Real Report (RPR)/Building Location Certificate would have revealed
