Frequently Asked Questions
A Texas title policy is an insurance policy that protects property owners and lenders against losses from defects in title, such as liens or ownership disputes. It is typically required during real estate transactions.
Rates are set by the Texas Department of Insurance. They are based on the property value or loan amount, with decreasing per-thousand rates as the amount increases. Owner's and lender's policies have different rate schedules.
When both an owner's policy and a lender's policy are issued at the same time, the lender's policy premium is discounted (typically 50% off) because the title search is shared.
