Title Insurance: The Unsung Hero of Your Closing Table 

May 5, 2025

Let’s be honest. No one gets excited about title insurance. It’s not the flashy part of buying a home. There’s no HGTV reveal moment, no trendy hashtag, and definitely no scented candle to mark the occasion. 

But here’s the thing: title insurance is one of the most important (and underrated) parts of a real estate deal. 

Think of it as your home’s clean bill of health. Title insurance checks the records, treats the issues, and makes sure you’re not inheriting any hidden legal headaches. From unpaid liens and boundary disputes to surprise heirs and long forgotten errors, it’s designed to protect your ownership from the baggage of the past. 

And unlike other insurance policies, this one is a one-time purchase at closing and it protects you for as long as you own the home. 

At Miller & Associates, we’ve had more than a few moments where title insurance saved the day. We’ve seen hidden problems surface at the eleventh hour and thanks to solid coverage (and a sharp legal team), our clients walked away protected. 

Because peace of mind at the closing table isn’t optional, it’s everything.
