I've been educating myself through books and podcasts on topics like sourcing off-market deals, deal and property analysis, creative financing, and title reviews.My fiancé is an architect that works with GC's and structural engineers to design homes ensuring they are functional, aesthetically pleasing, and safe- which I hope will help me navigate this space as I grow my knowledge.

So that being said, knowing that *I am not on the title/deed* can *I* go get the policy in my name since I do not have that issue of having made a “Personal Articles Claim” within three years.

Also wasn't able to purchase title insurance even though I requested it.

I'm unsure since from what I understand the seller would still maintain title and name on mortgage correct.TIA!

Good morning GP, If your property sells for $300,000, your "net sale price" after deducting your routine selling expenses (brokers commission, title, escrow, closing attorney, documentary transfer tax, etc.) will likely be around $275,000 (ish).

Hi everyone,I'm delving into purchasing properties through foreclosure auctions and am trying to navigate the complexities of preliminary title searches.

For example, at two events in the past week I met: a Dr. couple looking to get into investing, someone with four houses, someone with two duplexes, someone with a title company and 64 doors, someone with a couple apartment buildings and a winery, someone else with a title company and a parking lot striping company.

Really your team are going to be what make a transaction smooth (realtor, lender, insurance agent, title agent, etc). 

And it's always the same deal - title, appraisal, and borrower docs.
