Questions people ask about refinance title services
Do I need a new owner's title policy when I refinance my mortgage?
No, your original owner's policy remains active and protects you for as long as you or your heirs own the property. You only need to purchase a new lender's policy to protect your new mortgage provider.
How do you protect my refinance funds from wire fraud during the transaction?
Our local partners use secure verification protocols, requiring direct voice confirmation of all wire instructions before any money moves. They never send or accept updated wiring details through standard email.
Can I sign my refinance papers remotely if I cannot make it to a local office?
Yes, many local escrow officers can arrange for a mobile notary to meet you at your home or workplace. This is helpful for shift workers at local refineries or military personnel stationed in Kingsville.
How long does it take to get my title commitment back in San Patricio or Nueces County?
For a standard residential refinance, a local title professional can usually deliver the completed title commitment to your lender within a few business days after receiving the contract.
What is the difference between this and a regular purchase closing?
A refinance is much faster because there is no buyer or seller negotiation. The title company simply verifies your ownership, clears any new liens, pays off your old loan, and issues the new policy.
