For Homeowners

For Sale by Owner

Selling your home without an agent? A title company is still essential for a safe and legal transaction.

Why You Still Need a Title Company

For Sale By Owner (FSBO) properties are real estate transactions where the homeowner sells their property without the representation of a real estate agent or broker. While you may save on commission fees, the legal and financial complexities of closing a real estate transaction still require professional assistance.

A title company ensures that the property title is clear, handles escrow, manages the closing documents, and provides title insurance to protect both the buyer and seller. Without these protections, both parties are exposed to significant risk.

The Process

How We Help FSBO Sellers

1

Title Search & Examination

We run a thorough title search to ensure the property is free of liens, encumbrances, and any issues that could delay or derail the sale.

2

Escrow Management

As the neutral third party, we hold all funds in escrow and ensure they are distributed properly once all conditions are met.

3

Document Preparation

We prepare all the necessary closing documents including the deed, settlement statement, and any required disclosures.

4

Closing & Recording

We facilitate the closing, ensure all documents are properly signed, and record the deed with the county to complete the transfer of ownership.
