Frequently Asked Questions
What does a title insurance company do in Portland Maine?
A title insurance company performs a title search to check for claims against the property. It then issues a policy that protects the buyer or lender if a title problem arises later. In Maine, the search must cover at least the past 30 years of ownership history.
Is title insurance required in Maine?
Lenders in Maine almost always require a lender title policy to protect their investment. An owner title policy is not required by law but is strongly recommended for home buyers. Maine law does not mandate a specific policy form, but standard ALTA policies are commonly used.
How long does a title search take in Portland Maine?
A standard title search in Portland typically takes 3 to 5 business days. Complex properties or those with older records may require additional time. Maine has a 30 year statutory search period for marketable title under Title 33 M.R.S. Section 101.
