What happens if the title insurance company closed business?

2008-03-27 10:18 pm
I've bought title insurance when I bought a new house 10 years ago. Now, I notice that the title insurance company has quitted and closed business. Does it affect anything? Does it mean no more insurance coverage to my deed?

Ray, are you saying the title company closed, or are you saying the insurer that wrote the policy is no longer in business? It isn't clear from the information you gave, but here goes:

Usually, the title company does not underwrite the policy. You need to check the policy and see if the insurer is out of business--the title company and the insurer are not the same. If you find the insurer is no longer in business, you should contact the insurance department in the state you live in, and find out if these policies were assigned to another insurer. The state insurance department should be able to tell you whether or not your home is still covered. If the settlement company ( title company) went out of business, but the insurer is still in business, then you have nothing to worry about.
That's where I'd start. Good luck.
ps- the other person who wrote an answer is wrong. You don't pay on-going premiums for title insurance, it is a one-time payment at settlement of the property.

When they went out of business, those policies would've been bought by someone. You need to find out who the premium is sent to. Your mortgage holder will have that information.

call insurers in many situations have authorized brokers that would venture call coverage on their behalf. various situations those authorized brokers can get close down and their archives are not any extra regularly used in the event that they do something fraudulent or do no longer adhere strictly to coverage. I artwork for a mortage enterprise and we get notification a minimum of as quickly as each week approximately which organizations we can now no longer settle for insurances from. you need to work out in the event that they presented her an excellent "low value" for utilising them or something like that. in the event that they did, they are probably shady simply by fact the charges are regularly regulated by utilising the states.
