Why Title Insurance is Important in a Down Economy

written by Insure.com from World Class Title Agency of Columbus

Unlike the Wild West — when declaring property and owning a shotgun was all you needed to become a landowner — the civilized world invented a better way of handling land disputes: title insurance.
In tough economic times, title insurance becomes a crucial tool in protecting yourself from others financial woes. Lenders and homebuyers buy title insurance to ensure that a property can be legally transferred from the seller to the buyer. It protects you (or your mortgage lender) against problems relating to the property's title prior to the date of the policy. For example:
* If someone forged a signature in a past transfer of the title from one owner to another.
* If there are unpaid real estate taxes on the property.
* If there are liens against the property, including foreclosure, that are unresolved.
"Problems with a title happen more often than you can imagine," says Ilyce Glink, a financial expert and publisher of real estate advice site ThinkGlink.com.
"In order to avoid a number of problems with the initial sale, tile insurance is must-have for the buyer."
"Title problems often turn up in foreclosures, and with foreclosures come a higher number of claims," says Craig Page, executive vice president and counsel for the California Land Title Association.
"When people get into financial trouble, they often look for deep pockets to get them out of a situation, so they file a claim against the title.
"Dangers that affect titles in a bad economy
• Debts: A lien on your property securing the repayment of a debt (such as foreclosure).
• Divorce: Pension and property are the primary assets that are distributed in a divorce. If you are a couple that has negative equity in a home, you'll likely have to split the debt. Your spouse may contest the title and deny being the true owner to avoid paying his portion of the debt.
• Fraud and forged signatures on a deed: Fraudulent mortgages can run rampant in hard times.
• Falsified records: A corrupt real estate agent could declare that a house is marketable when it's not.
• Seller disclosure: Misinformation related to the history of the home and its physical characteristics, conditions and other factors affecting the value of the property.
• "Wild deed": An improperly recorded deed that affects ownership rights.
• Adverse possession: Somebody who possesses the land of another for an extended period of time may be able to claim legal title to that land. They have to prove that they have been in an "actual, open, notorious, exclusive, and continuous occupancy of property" for the period required by state law.
According to a March 2008 report by Fitch Ratings, title insurers suffered historic net losses in 2007 due in part to an unexpected increase in claims related to swelling mortgage foreclosures.Aside from the folks who are trying to find a way to ditch their mortgages, there are a number of problems that can occur with an unclear title.
"In declining markets, there is a strong argument that purchasing title insurance is more important than ever," says Page.
"During these uncertain times, there is an unfortunate increase in unpaid child support and judgment liens, and tax and special district liens from delinquent assessments. In addition, there are now many local governmental agencies that are recording liens associated with maintenance of abandoned foreclosure properties that would be a costly surprise for an unwary buyer.
"Everything in the real estate transaction process depends on having a clear title on the property. If your title is tainted, there will be a problem selling the home in the future.
"No one wants to inherit someone else's debt on a property," says Page.
"The worse thing that could happen is that an owner finds out that their home is considered "unmarketable" after the contract is signed.
"An unmarketable property is poison when buying or selling a home. If a property doesn't belong to you, has an unpaid mortgage, or a claim filed against it, the property is considered unmarketable by industry standards.
"If you have $100,000 in cash down on a $500,000 property and it turns out that the seller didn't own it and shouldn't have "sold' it to you, having title insurance means you won't lose money on the transaction," says Glink.
"You will lose the property, but you will get the money you invested back.
"Another good reason to have title insurance is in the event of a loss.Title insurance will reimburse you in the event a monetary loss results from a lawsuit against the title.
For example, an heir of a deceased property owner could decide he has an interest in the property. He could contest the title in court to determine who is the true owner, resulting in considerable legal fees. Title insurance will cover your legal bills.

My new Bank Short Sale negotiation tactic

I just finished reading "Short Sales and Loan Modifications" by Kenneth Lawson who is an attorney. He has a VERY AGGRESSIVE negotiating tactic that is not for the faint of heart. We are going to implement it immediately.

Have you missed the bottom for house prices in Central Ohio????

This image shows the most recent stats for CENTRAL OHIO. Don't listen to the national media!! We are in a recovery period folks. Buy now while it is still a buyers market because it is leaving........

The single most asked question we get is, "When are prices going to bottom out??"


The answer to that is, "We won't ever know we have hit the bottom until we are on the way back up--which means the bottom has already passed us."


It is just like the stock market--you cannot time the bottom of the market......because the bottom is defined as the period at which prices start to go up. You cannot realize the bottom until it is OVER, GONE, KAPUT, FIN........


HEADLINE MAY 27TH, 2009:

Home sales, prices rise again in April, inventory falls 16 percent

"(May 27, 2009) April showed increasing signs of stability in the central Ohio housing market, as home sales and prices increased, while homes on the market fell by a double-digit percentage, the Columbus Board of REALTORS® said today. "
If you (or someone you care about) are planning on ever buying a home--do it NOW. It is the perfect storm.
Warren Buffet says that there is a housing opportunity ONCE PER GENERATION that happens that is unlike any other. Folks this is it!!!
1. Free $8000 in government money from the federal government
2. State and county incentives to purchase a home
3. Prices that make Central Ohio on the most affordable list for the United States
4. The LOWEST fixed interest rates in the history of our country
Good luck to all of you.
Stacey and I only have room for 3 more buyers for our VIP Buyer Program. Please let us know if you would like us to speak with someone you care about to see if they qualify for our program.
We will try to squeeze them in before this perfect storm ends and things swing back to the sellers being in control. All the indicators show that it will not be very long from now.......

BRAND NEW Incentives in OHIO to Buy a Home--FREE $$$

Hello,

Please pass this along to any people you may know who might be considering buying a home.

The Government just rolled out another incentive to purchase. It is for a limited time, but it is incredible!!

Here are the highlights.....I can explain further if you email me.

---Down Payment assistance grant--

If paying for a down payment and closing costs have kept you from getting into a home of your own, OHFA's Down Payment Assistance Grant may be able to help. Eligible borrowers participating in the First-Time Homebuyer Program, Target Area Loan Program, and Ohio Heroes Program can use the grant to greatly reduce the out-of-pocket expenses associated with buying a home.
  • If you qualify for one of OHFA's home loan programs, you can choose to take advantage of the Down Payment Assistance Grant.
  • OHFA will issue a grant in an amount up to 2.5% of your home's purchase price.
    You can use the grant to pay for the down payment, closing costs, or other prepaid expenses incurred prior to closing. Keep in mind that while the grant will greatly reduce your expenses, you may still be required to pay for some costs out of pocket.

Here is the BRAND NEW additional help being provided by the State of Ohio as well:

--homebuyer tax credit advantage program --

Let OHFA help you with down payment and closing costs through the Homebuyer Tax Credit Advantage Program featuring no interest and no loan payments until August 2010. Eligible borrowers participating in the First-Time Homebuyer Program or Ohio Heroes Program can use the loan to greatly reduce the out-of-pocket expenses associated with buying a home.
If you qualify for one of OHFA's home loan programs, you can choose to take advantage of the Homebuyer Tax Credit Advantage Program.
  • OHFA will issue a loan, as a second mortgage, up to 3% of the purchase price of the home.
    You can use the loan to pay for the down payment, closing costs, or other prepaid expenses incurred prior to closing. Keep in mind that while the loan will greatly reduce your expenses, you may still be required to pay for some costs if they are not covered by the loan.
  • If you take advantage of the loan, your second mortgage interest rate will be fixed at 1% higher than OHFA's current mortgage rates and you will begin paying August 1, 2010.
  • You may be eligible for a new federal First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit of up to $8,000.
  • You may claim the credit either on your 2008 federal tax return, due April 15, 2009, or on your 2009 tax return filed in 2010. More information about the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit is available from the IRS web site.
  • Incentives are available if you choose to prepay the Homebuyer Tax Credit Advantage loan by June 30, 2010. Otherwise, your mortgage payment will increase slightly due to the added second mortgage loan payment.


These two programs essentially bring back the $0 down loan program for many buyers.

Contact me to see if you or someone you know qualifies. It is quite simple. Don't miss out!!

Deadline is in 6 months......the clock is ticking to claim one of the biggest incentives to buy a home ever put on by the US Government and The State of Ohio Government.

Bank Short Sale without major credit damage

Recent changes to lender guidelines are allowing people to short sale their home without going late on their mortgage.

This allows the homeowner to sell their home and avoid major damage to their credit.

We have great success negotiating mortgage debt forgiveness for our clients. That means the lender forgives all the "negative equity" in the home and the seller can move on with their lives and purchase another home.

If you want to learn how to take advantage of this program or to see if it applies to your particular situation, drop us an email.

How to Save Housing in the USA without spending any taxpayer $$$

I promise that you will never get
a BLOG from me about politics.............

This blog will start to sound a little like politics,
but it is not! It is about saving our homes, neighborhoods
and our country. And you can help.......

Please read this and decide for yourself.

You see, there is a bill in Congress right now -- HR600.
It is very important to YOU and ME and YOUR KIDS and
YOUR NEIGHBORS.

HR600 is the bill that will decide whether or not Down
Payment Assistance (DPA) should be allowed again.
(It was killed in October 2008 by Congress and HUD).


CALL ON CONGRESS TODAY -- (send your local,
state, and federal politicians an email--takes 4 minutes at most)

What is Down Payment Assistance you ask?? It is
where the SELLER can contribute $$ to the BUYER
of their home so that they can buy their first home.

IT DOES NOT COST ONE PENNY OF
TAXPAYER MONEY!! NONE. ZERO.
ZILCH. NADA.
(did you catch that?) It does not
cost you or me anything!! :-)

Why is it so important? Check out these facts
quoted from this website: http://www.ameridream.org

Over the past 10 years charitable down payment
assistance funded in part by home sellers have:


* Helped over one million people become homeowners.
* Given over $4 billion in cash for down payment assistance.
* Spurred $11 billion of direct spending with $24 billion of net economic impact.
* Never used government money or taxpayer dollars.


You see, most first time homebuyers do NOT
have$$ tens of thousands of dollars $$ to buy
their first home (who does nowadays--right?)

This program allows the SELLER to contribute
the down payment to the BUYER.

Now, this program was abused in the past because
LENDERS did not uphold their end of the bargain
and started letting EVERYONE get a loan--even
if they had terrible credit. That does not help anyone
and is, in fact, a detriment to everyone. That practice
MUST STOP.

HR600 is not asking for FHA to decrease their
lending restrictions........but rather, it is asking
them to make the restrictions tougher!! But at
the same time, allow QUALIFIED BUYERS to
use the DPA program to buy a home.

Why should you care??????????????

Because our country will not recover until HOUSING
recovers.

Forget WALL ST. Think MAIN ST.

We have to help the common American from the
Grass Roots level and get the first time home
buyers into the market.

Like it or not, 70% of Americans wealth are tied
up in their personal residences. We have to STOP
the decline in home prices and stem the tide of
foreclosures.

EMAIL CONGRESS A SHORT EMAIL -- (type one
email and it will automatically go to all of your
Congressmen & women)

Until first time home buyers start buying again,
no one else can sell their home and move up to a
larger home. It is an ugly Domino Effect.

Think about it. If the low-priced homes cannot be
sold, how can the upper-end homes sell? We have
to get the low end inventory sold (first time
homebuyers)--so those sellers can move up the
chain and buy larger homes and so on and so on.
Make sense?

Foreclosures are caused (quite often) because
the SELLER cannot SELL--even if they want
to (unless it is by a Short Sale). We must stop
foreclosures--now.

Congress is set to vote on this on February 9th, 2009.
If you think this is important--you must act right
now (it will take about 4 minutes of your time). I did
it in less time.

Click the link below:

I CARE ABOUT MY HOUSE AND WANT TO STOP ITS DECLINE IN VALUE
-- (take 4 minutes to let congress know we don't want
to spend anymore taxpayer $$)

This program can be a BIG start to fixing
the HOUSING CRISIS and it DOESN'T COST
A PENNY!!

Have a great day!!
