Do you plan on purchasing or refinancing property in Venango County, Pennsylvania? If so, you must make sure you have appropriate title insurance. If you do not have title insurance by the time you get to the closing table, your real estate transaction could be canceled.
We are World Wide Land Transfer, and we are a Pennsylvania title insurance company serving Venango County. We can connect you with a variety of insurance providers, and we can help you find the right title insurance to meet your needs. There are plenty of situations where people simply go with the title insurance provided to them by their lender.
Even though you can certainly go with the title insurance provider offered by your lender, your lender cannot require you to do so. Under federal law, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), you are allowed to choose your title insurance provider, and that is where our team can help you. We have experts who can work with you to evaluate all of your options, and we can make sure you find the best title insurance to meet your needs.
Instead of simply assuming that the title insurance offered by your real estate agent is the best option, work with an independent team. Reach out to us today to learn more about your options!
