Can I purchase Title insurance on my own?

Hi all!

I am Tackling my final R in the BRRR method for the first time. The house was bought via tax lien, so I dont currently own any title insurance on it. Do I have to go through a real estate attorney to purchase title insurance or can I contact an insurance broker on my own?

Thanks!

Ashleigh

    @Ashleigh Evans NO, you cannot contact an insurance company directly.  A title company is basically an insurance agent for title insurance.  They can insure the title because the title company has researched the title and declared it clear.
