Title Insurance for Real Estate in Living Trusts
My standard advice for clients who are transferring real property to their revocable living trusts is to check with their title insurance company to make sure they will still be covered. For those insured by Chapel Hill's own Investors Title Insurance Company, all that is required is to notify Investors, who will then issue a simple amendment, at no charge, to show the trust as the insured. Hopefully other insurers will do the same.
Also, don't forget to check with your homeowners insurance policy to ensure continued coverage.
