What Is Chain of Title?
When buying or selling property, one of the most important—but often overlooked—steps is verifying the Chain of Title. This is the official record of ownership for a piece of real estate, showing every transfer from the original owner to the current one.
Each time a property changes hands, a new link is added to the chain. These links are made up of legal documents like deeds and title transfers.
Why It’s Important

A clear Chain of Title ensures that:
✅ The property is free of legal issues
✅ There are no unpaid taxes or hidden claims
✅ You have full ownership rights
