🔑 TUESDAY TERMS | REAL ESTATE 101

Title Insurance protects against certain financial losses caused by covered title problems, such as liens, ownership claims, or other title defects that existed before you purchased the property.

In Texas, there are generally two types:

🏡 Owner’s Policy: Protects the homeowner against covered title risks.
🏦 Loan Policy: Protects the lender’s interest and is generally required when obtaining a mortgage.

Title insurance is different from homeowners insurance. It addresses covered title and ownership issues, not property damage like fire or theft.

👩🏻‍💼 Understanding the terms makes the home-buying process a little easier!

🔑 TUESDAY TERMS | REAL ESTATE 101

A Contingency Clause is a part of a real estate contract that makes certain parts of the deal dependent on a specific condition being met.

For example, a contract may include a contingency related to financing, appraisal, or the sale of another home. The contract or addendum will spell out the applicable requirements and deadlines.

🏡 Contingencies are different from the Texas option period, which is a separate negotiated contract provision.

🔑 TUESDAY TERMS | REAL ESTATE 101

Escrow Account can mean different things depending on where you are in the home-buying process.

🏡 Before closing, while you’re under contract:
An escrow agent, often the title company, may hold and handle funds according to the contract, including earnest money and option fees. Earnest money is generally held according to the terms of the contract, while the option fee may be released to the seller under the applicable Texas contract.

🏠 After closing, as a homeowner:
A mortgage escrow account is typically managed by your mortgage servicer. A portion of your monthly mortgage payment may be collected and held to pay expenses such as property taxes and homeowners insurance when those bills are due.

So when you hear “escrow,” remember that it can refer to different arrangements at different stages of the home-buying process.
