Title problems are more common than most buyers realize, but they’re usually resolvable with proper legal representation. Your attorney will identify issues like liens, easements, boundary disputes, or ownership questions during the title examination process. Depending on the problem, solutions might include getting liens paid off at closing, obtaining title insurance to protect against specific risks, or negotiating with the seller to resolve disputes before closing. Some title issues are deal-breakers, but many can be handled without killing the transaction. Having an experienced real estate attorney ensures you understand the risks and options before making decisions about problematic titles.
