Oak Leaf Title Ltd. ®

Congratulations on your decision to become a For Sale By Owner. More and more people like you are successfully marketing and selling their own homes. At times, you may be challenged by questions about title insurance, the closing process, and the legalities of selling your own home.

Here of some of the services that Oak Leaf Title, Ltd. can provide for someone who is trying to sell their home without the help of a Realtor®.

As the seller, you will need to provide an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance to your buyer. Title Insurance is an insurance policy that protects you, and the buyer, from claims on the property in regard to ownership. It protects against problems that occurred before you became the owner and defends you from anyone filing a claim against your property. You must have a clear title policy before a closing can take place.

Once you put your property on the market, and if you choose to handle the offer yourself, it is important to have the necessary legal forms. We have all of these forms available to you free of charge. We also have an attorney on staff if you choose to let a professional draw up your offer, this will ensure that your offer and any counter offers are completely legal and will protect your rights as the seller. Remember an offer to purchase, once signed by both parties, is a legal binding contract and is enforceable in court. For a small fee you can have peace of mind knowing a legal professional, who is looking out for your best interest has taken care of this process for you.

Now that everything is complete and it is time for the closing, Oak Leaf Title, Ltd. can also close the sale for you. We will take care of everything from preparing legal documents, ordering your payoffs, and finally attending the closing on your behalf clarifying any of the documents that you are signing.

If you are unable to sell your home on your own, we have a full service real estate company, Charter Oak Real Estate, Ltd. that can assist you in marketing your current home and/or locate a new home for you.

Our full service Mortgage Company, Acorn Financial Group, Inc. can help you with new home financing or help screen potential buyers of your home to insure that they are qualified and help with a faster closing.
