I used to manage a title company within a law firm and did everything from searching to closings.In WI, you don't need a license to be a searcher, but there are many other functions of working in a title company which would require a license. 

Always look in the most famous online real estate searchers but by the time you see a good deal , its gone.

This way you don't have to be a professional Title searcher, and the Title company/insurance will cover any defects. 

Or does going over $2,000 remove the searchers who filter by $1,500-2,000?

Maybe you are suggesting that route so the searcher can have peace of mind knowing the answer but it would seem pretty clear to me that if a bank owns it, it got if by foreclosure.And yeah, Chase is a black hole.

Your property shows off market online which in a searchers eyes means not for rent/available. 

Hello all,long time listener of the podcast and searcher of the forums. 

For investing though, I think realtors will remain extremely valuable in the grand scheme of things.Disagree.Sounds like Blockchain could be a threat to Title Searchers/Abstractors rather than title companies.

The title searcher didn’t flag for restrictions or easements.

You have no relationship with the title searcher they hired to conduct that search and cannot pursue them for damages if anything turns out to be inaccurate.
