Top choices for title searches

[Jose Alvarado]

Hello everyone. I have been reading about foreclosures and have a couple of questions on title searches. Mainly, what are the best avenues to get a title search done, and when should it be done.

I understand that liens on titles can be assumed on new owners. Does this happen in all foreclosure sales? Pre, auction and reo.

Lastly, I know you need a title search for loans. Is it all loans? I'm not saying I'm not going to get one on my first deal, that would be foolish. I'm just wondering at what points should I look for one.

Also, I am not currently investing, but am instead learning until I think I'm well educated enough. I live in pasco, Wa if that helps anyone.
