Title
Title is the legal right to own and use a property. A clear title means no one else has an unresolved claim. It confirms you truly own the home.
What Title means
A title search confirms the seller can transfer it. Any lien or claim must be cleared first. Clear title protects your ownership and your loan.
Florida example
A Florida title search finds an old lien. The title team clears it before closing. The buyer then takes clean ownership.
