FAQ
A house title represents the legal ownership of a property and goes hand-in-hand with the deed. The house title shows that the current seller legally owns the property and has the right to sell the home to the buyer. During closing, the title will transfer to the new owner, making the sale official.
The title shows who's owned the property in the past, contains a physical description of the property and shows any liens on it. If you just bought the home, your mortgage will be on the title as a lien. It's different from a deed, which is a document you get at closing that states you own the property.
