REAL ESTATE TITLE CLOSING COURSE
Prepare for Work as a Title Closer
A title closer represents a title or abstract company and helps ensure that a buyer receives good and clear title while protecting the lender's lien position.
Title closers gather the papers and documents needed for a real estate transaction. Their work includes verifying amounts due to satisfy mortgages, taxes, judgments, and other liens; recording legal documents and instruments; confirming that documents are prepared and executed in legal and recordable form; notarizing papers; and helping the parties maintain accurate adjustment calculations.
Accurate, detailed notes are essential in case the events of a transaction later become subject to audit.
