Full Search (Abstract)

Search of the records to obtain documents  relating to a particular piece of real property. This search will represent a 40 year chain unless otherwise indicated.

An abstract is a history of the title to property as revealed by the public records. Deeds, mortgages, other instruments and legal proceedings which have affected the property through the years are all included in an abstract.

Update

Search of the records from the last search performed for the requesting attorney for the same client. An update of title for a different client will be considered a full search for billing purposes.      

Final Update
