Title problems are more common than most buyers realize, but they’re usually resolvable with proper legal assistance. Your real estate attorney will identify the specific issue, whether it’s an outstanding lien, boundary dispute, or documentation problem. We then work to resolve the issue before closing, which might involve negotiating with the seller, obtaining releases, or correcting public records. In some cases, title insurance provides protection. If problems cannot be resolved, your attorney advises whether to proceed, renegotiate terms, or withdraw from the transaction while protecting your deposit.
