By scheduling an initial consultation with Mathis Title Company, you will learn more about how she can fully help you with each and every service she provides to fit your unique needs.
A general guideline to her service offerings will help get you started on your path to closing and settling into your new home:
Contract Preparation and Review
In a less common FSBO home buying situation (For Sale By Owner), Robin will assist you in the home buying process by drawing up a purchase agreement between you and the seller. In this circumstance, the seller chooses not to be represented by a Real Estate agent and decides to put their home on the market themselves, acting as their own agent. Robin will ensure that the title, documents, and transfer of funds is legally binding for a successful purchase and mortgage agreement.
Mechanics Lien and Agent Services
Mathis Title Company is experienced in assisting you with receiving due compensation if you are a contractor by filing a mechanics lien on your behalf. This legal document will guarantee you payment for the remodeling or construction project by issuing a lien on the owner of the property that you performed labor for. Robin Mathis is also an expert on VA laws that relate to liens. She will handle the procedures and deadlines that tie into the lien filing process.
Refinancing
Mortgage modifications can cause stressful legal complications, and having to negotiate a revised contract can be difficult, especially if you have little experience or knowledge of how to handle mortgage refinancing. Seeking the expertise of an experienced attorney like Robin Mathis will save you headaches and money. She will guide you through the process of title searching/management, prepare the closing documentations and effectively cooperate with the mortgage lenders.
Settlement and Real Estate Closing
The mortgage settlement is also known as the closing. Robin will meet with you (the home buyer) the selling party and the title company representative, and lender to agree upon the property transaction and legal transfer of funds. She will be your agent in ensuring that all necessary documentation is signed and understood, that the lender legally receive and distribute payments, and that important documents such as deeds and mortgages are registered with your county’s records office.
Title Insurance
It is important to ensure that the title being transferred during the closing process is clean. This is where Robin’s experience comes into play. She will conduct the proper research on the title and after it has been deemed clean and approved for transfer, she will recruit the assistance of trusted underwriters to insure your new title with an owner’s policy and lender’s policy. These will protect both the mortgage lender and you (the homebuyer) against any transfer-of-ownership problems that may arise.
Robin Mathis prides herself on providing personalized services for her clients. She will listen to your unique home buying needs and give you the proper attention to find a solution that will help you avoid the worry of title transfers, closing procedures, and mortgage lenders.
