There has been recent news regarding hackers stealing the Title of homes without the homeowner knowing it. While we have not personally seen this, it has happened to homeowners & it is VERY expensive to get this corrected (if it can even be corrected). There was even a national TV show exposing this problem.
There are also vendors our there that will monitor home titles for a low monthly fee so you could be notified if any new document gets recorded against your home.
