Refinancing Made Easy: Southern Title

Refinancing your home is easy with title insurance! 

Refinancing your home can be a difficult task to navigate, which is why title companies like Southern Title are here to make the process a little easier. Whether you're ready to start refinancing or you're not sure if this action is the right step for you, we're here to give you some information about what this process means. 

When a homeowner refinances their home, their current payment plan will be reassessed. This can happen for a number of reasons. For instance, sometimes it is difficult for homeowners to meet the current mortgage payment, so they attempt for lower rates over a longer time span. Other times, a home is refinanced because of a divorce or other happening that can have an impact on finances or change the ownership status. Or, maybe the owner can now achieve lower interest rates, so they would like to have a plan that reflects that. Depending on your situation, refinancing may be right for you. 

So, what do we have to do with the refinancing process? In many cases, when a homeowner wants to refinance, the lender will send us a notice so that we can confirm ownership. We allow this process to move forward in an efficient manner so that the lender and the owner can benefit. We can also facilitate the transaction process and take on the role of an unbiased third party, ensuring smoother transactions. 

Additionally, title companies can help homeowners retrieve a new title after refinancing due to divorce or other circumstances that cause the homeowner's status to change. In most cases, refinancing does not lead the owner to need a new title, but this is the one exception, as the homeowner will want their title to reflect true ownership. 

When it comes to refinancing, mortgaging, selling, and buying, Southern Title of Mansfield, Wooster, and Sandusky, Ohio, is here to protect you-- whether you're a lender, buyer, or seller. Our title insurance is designed to reduce stress around property transactions. If you'd like to learn more, please visit our website today.

The Difference Between Title Insurance and Homeowners Insurance

Title insurance and home insurance are often terms used together. However, they are two separate ideas. Because both title and homeowners insurance plans involve the home, you may have heard the terms used synonymously. And, although we understand the assumption that they are the same, they refer to two different things. Both are important for different reasons:  The main difference between homeowners insurance and title insurance is that one protects you against property damage, while the other protects your property ownership.  Homeowners insurance protects you against property damage. This protection includes any items inside your home. Property damage covers any possessions in the case of theft and even protects you in the event that an injury occurs to a guest inside your home. It does not protect you should a person claim to have title rights to your home, however.  Title insurance protects your property ownership. Title insurance does not cover infestations, fire damages, or oth
