I was just listening to an experienced buyer and seller yesterday and he said that right now he gets all homeownership insurance you need to protect you and to always get title insurance the second you close.

Second I have two out clauses in my contracts that also protect me.There have been a few that I couldnt sell, not many at all though, probably 2 or 3 total.
