Frequently Asked Questions
What does a title insurance company do in Oakley?
A title insurance company searches public records for liens or ownership disputes on a property. It then issues a policy that protects the buyer or lender against future claims. This is standard for all real estate transactions in California.
How long does a title search take in California?
A standard title search in California usually takes 5 to 10 business days. The time can vary based on the complexity of the property history and the workload of the county recorder. Oakley properties may require additional research for older subdivisions.
Is title insurance required in California?
Lenders almost always require a lender title policy in California. A buyer policy is optional but strongly recommended. California Civil Code Section 1094 does not mandate buyer title insurance but it provides important protection.
