About Abstractor

What does an Abstractor do?

As Abstractors, we prepare lists of legal instruments specific to a specific piece of land and the buildings on it, and thoroughly examine documentation such as mortgages, liens, judgments, easements, maps, plat books, and agreements to verify a multitude of factors such as properties' legal descriptions, ownership, or restrictions. We also examine individual titles to determine if there are any restrictions due to tax delinquency that will affect titles and limit property use. We prepare reports describing any title encumbrances encountered during searching activities, and outlining actions needed to clear titles.

Core tasks:

  • aid in decision making by researching all relevant legal materials
  • evaluate information related to legal matters in public and personal records
