Title Insurance

MORE THAN JUST A TITLE COMMITMENT
Forsyth, Howe, O'Dwyer, Kalb & Murphy, PC is a title agent for three of the largest title insurance underwriters, Ticor Title Insurance Company / Chicago Title Insurance Company / Land America / Lawyer's Title Insurance Corporation and First American Title Insurance Company. The firm provides title agent services throughout New York State, as well as throughout Pennsylvania and Florida. In addition, through its contacts with these major title underwriters, the firm can serve as one source for lenders in connection with multi-state title insurance and closing requirements. In this regard, the firm will provide or coordinate all title insurance orders, assist the lender with the cure of title defects by serving as the lender's interface with the local title insurance agent and by providing the lender with a title insurance overlay document which will advise the lender in simple terms of the curative steps needed to obtain a clean title insurance policy, schedule closings at locations convenient to the borrower, disburse funds, and provide post closing follow up relative to the return of the closing file and the provision of the lender's final title insurance policy.

VALUE ADDED TITLE OVERLAY
The title insurance overlay document provided to the lender with the title commitment further assists loan processors and underwriters with a brief summary in simple terms as to what the title insurance company needs to clear title defects. This document, together with the assistance of our staff in working with the title insurance agent, will shorten the time needed to schedule files for closing and will also help to eliminate files that do not close because of missing or incorrect title curatives.

Forsyth, Howe, O'Dwyer, Kalb & Murphy, PC prides itself on providing not only prompt title insurance products, but also closed loans that do not contain numerous unresolved title defects that will devalue the lender's security down the road.
