What Most Homebuyers Don’t Know About Title Insurance Costs

In this quick and insightful episode of Know Before You Owe, Jim Black sits down with Grant Marple to talk about why title insurance fees are misunderstood, often overpriced, and completely within the buyer’s control. They unpack what’s actually covered by title insurance, why mechanics liens are more common than people think, and how you can use title transparency as a negotiation advantage, whether you’re refinancing or buying. Great for buyers, agents, and lenders who want to stretch every dollar.
