Wants to see title commitment before making offer???

[Jim Bailey]

I'm kind of new to commercial deals....

I contacted a commercial real estate developer and he wants to see a survey and a title commitment in order to consider the land that I'm selling...

Is this common?  Can I get a title company to open title and get this done before there is a contract? I have a title company I'm working with, but I'm not sure if they're willing to do this... should they be willing to do this?

Thanks!
