⚠ Protect yourself from wire fraud

Real-estate wire fraud is real and rising. We will never email you new or changed wiring instructions. If you receive wiring instructions or a request to change them — even if they look like they're from us — stop and call our office at a number you already trust before sending any money. When in doubt, call 719-539-1001 and verify in person.

Good to know

Title & escrow — common questions

Plain-English answers. Informational only — not legal advice.

What does title insurance actually protect?

An owner's policy protects your ownership against title defects, liens, errors in the public record, and certain claims that could surface after closing. It's a one-time premium at closing that protects you for as long as you own the property.

What's the difference between title and escrow?

Title is the research and insurance side — confirming who owns the property and what's attached to it. Escrow is the neutral handling of funds and documents through closing. We do both, on one file, locally.

Why does local matter for land, ranch, and water-rights deals?

Central Colorado chains routinely involve water rights, ditch easements, mining claims, conservation easements, and large-acreage splits. Our examiners review these every week and explain what conveys and what's reserved — details an out-of-area processor can miss.

Do I have to close in person?

No. About 80% of our closings happen in person at our Salida, Buena Vista, and Westcliffe offices — but we also close in Denver or remotely with a notary.

How fast is your turnaround?

Our typical title turnaround is three business days; curative work usually adds two to four days depending on what surfaces. Timelines are typical, not guaranteed — loop us in early.
