How long does a commercial title search take?

Commercial title searches typically take 5–10 business days, depending on the complexity of the ownership history and the availability of county records. Searches on properties with complex chain-of-title issues, multiple recorded instruments, or older documentation may take longer. Eastern Title provides a timeline estimate when the order is opened.

What endorsements are typically required on commercial title insurance?

Common commercial endorsements include the zoning endorsement (confirming permitted use), access endorsement (confirming legal access to the property), survey endorsement (removing the standard survey exception), contiguity endorsement (for multi-parcel acquisitions), and comprehensive endorsement. Lenders typically specify required endorsements in their title requirements.

Can Eastern Title handle multi-state commercial portfolio acquisitions?

Yes. Eastern Title is licensed in all 50 states and regularly manages multi-state portfolio transactions for institutional buyers, lenders, and investment funds. We assign a dedicated team to coordinate all state-specific requirements, search orders, and closing schedules under a single point of contact.

What is a sale-leaseback and how does title insurance apply?

A sale-leaseback is a transaction where a property owner sells the property and simultaneously leases it back from the buyer. Title insurance for a sale-leaseback covers both the buyer's ownership interest and the lender's mortgage interest, and typically includes a leasehold endorsement. Eastern Title has experience structuring title coverage for both sides of these transactions.
