Lender's Title Policy in Detroit: what to expect

A lender's title policy in Detroit protects the mortgage lender's lien position if a covered title defect surfaces after closing. Most lenders require one on a purchase or refinance in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties, and the borrower typically pays for it as a closing cost.

The policy amount usually matches the loan amount and declines as the loan is paid down. It does not protect the owner: if you want coverage for your own equity, add an owner's title policy, often at the same closing.

On a refinance, a new lender's policy is normally issued even if you had one before. Compare quotes with Metro Detroit title companies and ask your mortgage lender which title services you may shop for. Rebuild Detroit is not a title agency or law firm, and this is general information, not legal advice.

Licensing and records in Michigan

In Michigan, title insurers and title insurance agents are regulated by the Department of Insurance and Financial Services (DIFS), which licenses title producers and agencies. Search the agent, agency or underwriter in the DIFS locator before you send money.

The new mortgage is recorded with the county register of deeds. Your Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure show title charges, and federal rules require the Closing Disclosure at least three business days before closing on most mortgages.

How to compare quotes

  1. Check your Loan Estimate for which title services you can shop for.
  2. Ask for an itemized quote for the lender's policy and endorsements.
  3. Ask about the price of adding an owner's policy at the same closing.
  4. Check the agent or agency in the DIFS locator.
  5. Confirm wiring instructions by phone at a number you already know.

Common questions

Lender's Title Policy in Detroit: FAQ

Most mortgage lenders require one. It protects the lender, not you.
It depends on the loan amount, required endorsements, whether it is issued with an owner's policy, and whether it is a purchase or refinance.
Usually yes. The new lender typically requires its own policy for the new loan.
Often yes. Your Loan Estimate lists the services you can shop for, and the purchase agreement may also name a title company.
It does not protect the borrower's equity, and it excludes the exceptions listed in the policy. Only an owner's policy protects the buyer.
