Even though your home is new to you, every property has a title history which requires research. New home builds even have issues because the land likely had several owners before you purchased the home from the builder.
If there are any pending issues with your property, then you may inherit these problems when you acquire the home. The presence of an attorney will protect you prior to the sale, and carrying title insurance will protect you after you have acquired the property. Some of the problems associated with titles include unknown liens, boundary disputes, deeds given under duress, easements on your land, and even issues with public records.
