Title Examiner Jobs in Washington

A Title Examiner plays a crucial role in the real estate industry by conducting a detailed examination of property records to determine the legal status of a property. They search and analyze public records to document details about a property, such as previous owners, liens, or any legal actions that may affect the property's title. They compile lists of mortgages, deeds, and other documents related to the title, and prepare reports describing any title encumbrances observed. A Title Examiner also determines whether title insurance can be issued for a property, which is a critical step in the process of buying or selling real estate.

Important skills for a Title Examiner include strong research abilities, attention to detail, and proficiency in understanding complex legal documents. They should also have excellent written communication skills to prepare clear and comprehensive reports. A degree in law, business administration, or a related field is often required. Certifications such as Certified Title Examiner (CTE) or Certified Title Professional (CTP) can also be beneficial in this role. Prior to becoming a Title Examiner, individuals may have roles such as Title Clerk, Escrow Officer, or Title Searcher to gain experience and understanding of property and title laws.
