its not guaranteed until the title commitment is done and in hand.. lenders want that a few weeks in advance so they have time to review it and check that there is nothing on title they dont like or is a deal breaker to funding.. they dont want to do all the work then have one day to review and approve title. these companies work just like a bank  they have set process's and getting title commitment and funding  same day is not one of them. now myself I will without title insurance.. and rely on a trustee's guarantee and my borrower if something does not go right then my borrower has to make it right.. so it takes a very special borrower that has that capacity.. and or have earned my trust.
