There are many searches and sources of information utilized to comprise a current investigative report for the property manager, creditor, franchisor, or OEM. A land title sub search is one of those sources and can provide a range of pertinent information. Results can assist in confirming ownership, in what is often an individual’s primary asset.

What is a Title Search?

A title search or property title search is the process of retrieving documents detailing the history of a piece of real property, to determine relevant interests in and regulations. The process of performing a title search involves acquiring the official land records for the subject property.
