In this episode you will learn:
• Chain of title is the chronological list of all previous owners and represents the sequential links of ownership.
• Abstract of title is a condensed summary of all recorded documents including deeds, mortgages, liens, and easements.
• A suit to quiet title or a quitclaim deed is typically used by owners to fix a broken chain or cloud on title.
• Title examiners generally search public records for at least forty years to establish a marketable title for the buyer.
• An abstract is only a report of the public record and does not provide the protection of title insurance or a guarantee of validity.
