We are highly skilled title agents who tailor the closings to our client's needs. We establish innovative processes, such as e-notarization of the closings, issuance of owner's title policies at the closing table and recording the transaction electronically wherever available. This assures a more fluid experience for all parties to a transaction. While we embrace change, the people at American Guardian Title USA continue to focus on those qualities that make our company the cornerstone for the title industry.

Title Insurance is a form of indemnity insurance, which protects owners and mortgage lenders against financial loss resulting from challenges or defects in the title to real estate.
Prior to the transfer of ownership, a satisfactory title examination is required to issue the policy.
These policies protect a policyholder against loss from some occurrence that has already happened but is not shown in the public record, such as a forged deed somewhere back in the chain of title.
Title insurance will typically cover the policyholder's attorney and court expenses, or pay for financial loss caused by unknown defects, subject to the policy's terms and limitations.

So you purchased title insurance when you bought your home.
Why should you buy more when you are refinancing your own place?
While you do not need to buy new owner's title insurance, your new lender will want a title insurance policy, however.
As far as owner's title insurance goes, you purchased it when you bought the home and it remains in effect for as long as you own the property.
That means that whether you refinance once or a dozen times, as long as you remain the owner of the property, your title insurance protects you against title defects and hidden encumbrances and claims.

Real estate investors who sell a property can sometimes take advantage of a section in the U.S. IRS' tax code that allows them to defer capital gains or losses on the property.
This is called a 1031 exchange, after the section of tax code that offers this benefit.
Like-kind property is property of the same nature, character or class.
Quality or grade does not matter.
Most real estate will be like-kind to other real estate.
For example, real property that is improved with a residential rental house is like-kind to vacant land.
