Closing on a home involves a lot of moving parts most buyers and sellers never see — and title work is one of the most important. In this episode, John sits down with Kevin Carter, an attorney at Standard Title, to break down what title work is, why it’s a non-negotiable part of every transaction, and how his team protects buyers and sellers along the way.
Kevin also shares some of the creative strategies he’s seeing in today’s market to keep deals moving forward even with interest rates higher than they’ve been in years. If you’ve ever wondered what actually happens between “under contract” and “closing day,” this one’s for you.
