A HUD home is a 1-to-4 unit residential property acquired by HUD as a result of a foreclosure action on an FHA-insured mortgage. HUD becomes the property owner and offers the home for sale to the public. HUD is represented by several different Asset Managers in Maryland. The Asset Managers manage the property sale.
Tenants in common contains no survivorship. When one owner passes away, their property passes through their estate to their respective estate beneficiaries. Each person owns their proportionate share of the property. By default, proportionate share would be divided up by the number of people who own the property.
A life estate deed can be thought of as a will solely for a particular property. A Life Estate deed provides that the owner of the property ("Life Tenant") owns the property during the Life Tenant's lifetime. The Remainderman named in the life estate deed becomes the owner of the property upon the death of the Life Tenant.
Many people confuse the concept of a Warranty Deed with the concept of a sellers guarantee of the physical condition of the house. When we discuss Warranty Deeds, Warranty refers only to the condition of the Title. It is not related to the physical condition of the house. There is no language in a deed that covers the physical condition of the house.
Title Insurance is a policy that guarantees to cover losses in the event someone else makes a claim against the title. This can include numerous types of ownership claims, including estates, unknown heirs, mortgages, judgments, tax liens, adverse possession, and others. The policy can be either an Owner's Title Policy or a Lender's Title Policy.

David helped us with a family real estate transaction and helped things go extremely smooth for all parties involved. It was also in the middle of the quarantine, but David was still available early in the morning or late at night to help us with any questions we had. Would absolutely recommend using King Title!

They are the best. I have used King Title for over 20 years, not only for my own home, but for buying and selling rental properties. Over the years I have run across some unusual situations which have required some help over and above what a title company normally provides. David, Anita and Randee have always provided excellent advise and I would always trust their honest and sound advise.

I find the office staff very rude, careless and unprofessional. In stressful times you need a company that will be able to help assist and guide you. They where very cold, uninformative and left me clueless to whether we where going to closing. Which never happen. I didn't want to give them a star at all

I'm a private lender. I have been conducting business with King Title since 2016. Since then, I have had a wide variety of experiences with many title companies. My experience has been that King Title excels in every area. I receive my loan doc package within a few days of settlement. The real miracle occurs when I look online at Maryland Land records and see that my Deeds of Trust have been recorded and are visible to me within a week of settlement. The Certificates of Satisfaction I send in get recorded and are visible in Mdlandrec as well. I get my title policies in a timely manner - the list

I am a real estate investor who has interacted with other title companies in Baltimore and I can say King Title is the best of them. I can not think of a single hitch that has occurred through all the transactions they have handled for me. They go above and beyond what is required of them, are friendly, easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable.
