Are you getting ready to purchase or refinance property in Tioga County, Pennsylvania? You need to make sure you have the right title insurance plan, and you have the option to select the right title insurance to meet your requirements.
If you do not have title insurance when you get to the closing table, your real estate transaction might not be completed. At the same time, you are not required to choose the title insurance plan provided to you by your lender or real estate agent.
Under federal law, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), you are allowed to choose your title insurance plan, and we can review your choices with you. We are World Wide Land Transfer, and we are a Pennsylvania title insurance company serving Tioga county. We are independent, and we can connect you with a third-party provider who may be able to provide you with title insurance at a more affordable price.
We even have a real estate attorney on our team who will take a look at your title insurance and mortgage paperwork for you. That way, you can make sure that all of your ducks are in a row before you get to the closing table.
If you are looking for a truly independent company that can help you find the best title insurance plan, give us a call today to speak to our team!
TIOGA COUNTY
Tioga County was formed on March 26, 1804 from parts of Lycoming County. The name, derived from an Indian word meaning “the forks of a stream”, honors the Tioga River. Wellsboro, the county seat, lies just 12 miles east of the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, one of state’s most spectacular natural attractions. While you’re visiting the Canyon, be sure to enjoy the charming and historic appeal reflected by the town’s Victorian architecture, tree-lined streets, and old fashioned gas lights.
