What We Do

Buying and selling real estate may seem daunting without proper guidance, but it doesn’t need to be stressful. Instead, the process should be exciting and your nerves should be at ease. As your closing attorney, Coast Title Company first examines your title in order to determine whether any ownership issues may exist. After a thorough search, we issue title insurance to protect the buyer. After the title search comes back clear or title issues are remedied, and after “clear to close” has been given by the lender, we coordinate the closing details with the buyer, seller, agents, lenders, and any additional parties. At the closing table, the title insurance and mortgage documents are presented and explained. Once the closing is finalized, Coast Title Insurance will have the deed showing the property transfer in land records and funds will be disbursed to the various parties.

We are licensed to handle closings in both Mississippi AND Alabama.

Title Insurance Explained

When a property is financed, bought, or sold, a record of the transaction is filed in public archives. These records along with records of other events that may affect ownership of a property, like liens, are also archived. When you purchase title insurance, Coast Title Company searches these records to find and remedy various ownership issues. After the search is complete, the title insurance underwriter will determine the insurability of the title.

There may be instances where even the most skilled title professionals may not find all problems, however. Filing errors, forgeries, or undisclosed heirs are difficult to identify, so after Coast Title Company finishes its search, we also provide a title insurance policy that will help protect you from a variety of issues that may be uncovered later.

If you take out a mortgage on your property, the lender will require title insurance in order to protect the lender’s interest in your loan until the loan is paid off or refinanced.

There is also the option for an owner’s title insurance policy. This type of policy insures your ownership rights to the property. Your coverage will last as long as you own your home. Title insurance buys you peace of mind to cover what may be the largest financial investment of your life. It’s your legacy. Protect it.
