In today’s world, the security of your property is more critical than ever. There’s been an increasing buzz around the potential for fraudulent activities involving real estate deeds, where unauthorized individuals may file a deed to transfer your property or secure a loan against it. This could lead to significant legal and financial problems if not addressed promptly. As concerns grow, many property owners are turning to title protection services to safeguard their assets. But what exactly are these services, and how can they protect your property?

McIntyre Elder Law now hosts the Elder Law Update every Thursday live on our Facebook page. This seminar provides valuable insights into elder law, estate planning, and long-term care. If you missed our latest session, here is a detailed recap of the important points discussed. Join us this Thursday for more updates!

Title Fraud & The Need for Protection

Title fraud occurs when someone illegally files a deed to transfer ownership of your property or takes out a loan using your property as collateral, without your consent. This type of fraud can go undetected until it’s too late, leaving property owners in a vulnerable position. The consequences can be severe, including the risk of foreclosure if a fraudulent loan isn’t repaid.

Given the rising awareness of such risks, various national or third-party agencies offer services like title lock or title monitoring. These services claim to keep an eye on your property’s title and alert you to any suspicious activity. However, the effectiveness and legitimacy of these services have been a topic of debate.

Our New Service: Title Protection Services (TPS)

At McIntyre Elder Law, we recognize the importance of securing your property title from fraudulent activities. That’s why we’ve developed our own Title Protection Services (TPS), designed to provide you with peace of mind by regularly monitoring the status of your property’s title.

How TPS Works

In North Carolina, all deeds to real estate and associated documents, such as deeds of trust, are recorded at the Register of Deeds in each county. These records are publicly accessible, allowing anyone to search for them either online or in person. However, navigating these records can be complex, particularly if you need to trace the chain of title back 30 to 40 years.

Our Title Protection Services leverage our extensive experience and expertise in dealing with real estate law and title searches. Here’s how the service works:

1. Monthly Monitoring: We perform a thorough check of your property’s title every month. Our team of paralegals and attorneys, who are intimately familiar with the Register of Deeds’ systems, handle this process.
2. Detailed Reporting: After each monthly review, we provide you with a comprehensive report detailing the current status of your property’s title. This report will highlight any changes or suspicious activities that could indicate potential fraud.
3. Immediate Alerts: If we detect any unauthorized activity, such as the filing of a fraudulent deed or deed of trust, we notify you immediately. This prompt alert allows you to take quick action to protect your property.
4. Expert Guidance: In the event of suspicious activity, we don’t just leave you with an alert. We also offer a consultation to discuss the situation and advise on the best course of action to resolve any issues. This ensures that you have the legal support you need to safeguard your property.

The Value of Local Expertise

While there are national services that offer similar protection, our Title Protection Services provide the added advantage of local expertise. As attorneys who are deeply familiar with North Carolina’s real estate laws and the intricacies of the Register of Deeds system, we offer a level of insight and personalized service that broader agencies simply can’t match.

One of our clients recently summed up the value of this service perfectly. He pointed out that even if he were to notice a fraudulent activity on his own, he would still need to come to us for legal help. By allowing us to monitor his property regularly, he could be confident that any issues would be identified and addressed quickly, without the hassle of trying to navigate the legal system on his own.
