O&E vs Full Title Search

[Omer Husain]

Hello,

New member here at BP from Houston and have been reading tons of posts, mostly related to foreclosures.  I attended my first auction earlier this month just to observe and have been highly motivated to buy my first property.  I know I have many questions, but I'll start off with one.  This may be a stupid question but what is the main difference in getting an O&E report versus a Full title search?  I know a full title search costs more, and if I'm interested in looking at 10 properties, it can add up, so could I get all the pertinent information in an O&E report such as mortgage info, liens, judgments, etc?  Thanks!
