Title insurance protects against loss of value from hazards and defects that may exist in the title to real estate that you purchase. These hazards may include fraud, forged signatures on deeds, unknown heirs, liens, survey issues, and documentation errors. If you were uninsured and your right to title is challenged, you could lose significant money defending yourself or you could lose your property.
