It’s best to have a prelim on hand right when you execute a listing agreement instead of waiting until you open escrow. This will help prevent any surprises when it comes time to close escrow!
Possible surprises will be avoided by following this tip are:
– Tax Liens
– Mechanics Liens
– Additonal Trusts on Title
– Credit Card Judgements
– EDD (Employement Development Department)
– HOA Liens
– Personal Liens
– Etc.
