Title in Cleveland
I'm buying a SFH in Cleveland, would like to run title before paying. Anyone know a good resource? How much should it cost? Thanks!

@Gard Van Antwerp Any Title Company who is reputable will run a preliminary title report up front for free, providing there is a high likelyhood of you choosing them. Most of their fees are regulated so in my opinion, costs vary little (total closing costs should be 2-3% of total transaction amount). It is the speed of service, expertise and ancillary services such as in house deed prep and legal.
I use North Star Title in Downtown Cleveland and highly recommend them. However, I have had generally good experiences with most. There are only a few bad apples in my opinion. Good Luck!
