The experienced title officers at Fortress Title Agency can conduct a thorough and exhaustive property title search. Our certified title experts research and retrieve every document evidencing the history of a property. This includes a Property, Name and Tax Records search. Title officers search centralized government offices, such as the county courthouse or municipal offices, to obtain the hard copy records on the property.

The documents are examined to determine if the seller has a marketable interest in the property, and if there are any restrictions, easements or other servitudes pertaining to the use of the land. The title officers also uncover any liens which may exist on the property, including mortgages, back taxes, mechanic’s liens or other assessments. Fortress Title Agency’s comprehensive search of official land records can disclose the current facts regarding ownership of real estate, in order to ensure a smooth transfer of ownership.
