Unreleased liens
Paid-off mortgages, judgments, or contractor liens that were never formally released still cloud title.
Houston Homeowner Guide
Title problems are one of the most common reasons a sale stalls, and they are often discovered late in a traditional transaction.
We would rather find them early. Identifying what needs to be cured tells everyone whether a closing is achievable and roughly how long it may take.
What to Understand First
Paid-off mortgages, judgments, or contractor liens that were never formally released still cloud title.
When an owner passed without probate, the chain of ownership has to be established before anyone can convey.
Survey conflicts, encroachments, and easements can require correction documents.
Divorce decrees, prior contracts, and competing claims need resolution before a title company will insure.
These matters are resolved with the title company and, when needed, an attorney. We can help identify what needs attention.
