Complete Title & Settlement Services
Delivering thorough title research, financial protection, escrow integrity, and smooth closing execution for every real estate transaction.
Title Search
Thorough Ownership ResearchA title search is one of the most critical steps in any real estate transaction. Our expert title examiners analyze public land records, tax records, court filings, and historical deeds to establish a clean and marketable ownership history.
We identify and resolve potential issues early — including unreleased mortgages, mechanic’s liens, property tax delinquencies, probate complexities, and boundary disputes — ensuring you enter closing with total confidence.
- Public Deed & Lien Examination
- Tax & Judgment Verification
- Title Commitment Generation
- Issue Resolution & Clearance
Title Insurance
Comprehensive ProtectionEven the most thorough title search cannot uncover hidden defects like forged deeds, undisclosed heirs, mistakes in public records, or fraudulent transfers. Title insurance provides essential financial defense against these unexpected legal claims.
We offer both Owner’s Title Policies (protecting home buyers for as long as they or their heirs hold interest in the property) and Lender’s Title Policies (required by financial institutions to secure loan investments).
- Owner’s Policy Coverage
- Lender’s Policy Coverage
- One-time Premium at Closing
- Defense Against Fraud & Forgery
Escrow Services
Neutral Financial SafeguardAs a neutral third party, Elevate Title Group manages escrow accounts to safely hold earnest money deposits, loan proceeds, and closing funds until all contractual conditions of the purchase agreement are fully satisfied.
Our escrow protocols prioritize strict wire security, rigorous account auditing, and transparent accounting so that all funds are held safely and disbursed accurately at settlement.
Closing & Settlement
Seamless Finish LineThe settlement process is where all contract terms come together. We coordinate with buyers, sellers, real estate agents, loan officers, and attorneys to review settlement statements (CD/HUD), execute closing packages, and ensure proper fund distribution.
Whether conducted in our Columbia office or at a flexible location, our experienced settlement agents make the signing experience relaxed, organized, and memorable.
Notary Services
Verified ExecutionWe provide professional notary acknowledgments and document verification for deeds, powers of attorney, affidavits, loan agreements, and settlement instruments.
Our commissioned notaries ensure all legal formalities are met so your settlement documents are fully compliant and ready for public recording.
