Day 14: FOURTEEN title issues we find and clear before closing

A clean title doesn't happen by accident.

Before a property can be transferred, our team works to identify and resolve issues that could delay or prevent a closing. Some of the most common title issues we encounter include:

• Judgment Liens
• IRS Liens
• Mechanic's Liens
• Unreleased Deeds of Trust
• Incorrect Property Descriptions
• Missing Heirs
• Unknown Easements
• Boundary Disputes
• Encroachments
• Public Record Errors or Incorrect Indexing
• Unpaid Property Taxes
• Improper Deeds
• Bankruptcy Issues
• Landlocked Properties

Most buyers never see these problems because our team is already working behind the scenes to address them.

The goal is simple: identify the issue, resolve it, and make sure title can pass properly on closing day.

Day 12: TWELVE major timelines in the REIN contract.

One of the easiest ways for a transaction to go sideways is by missing a deadline.

That's why understanding the key timelines in the REIN contract is so important. Here are 12 dates and deadlines agents should have on their radar:

• Submit Earnest Money Deposit (EMD)
• Ratification Date
• Apply for Loan & Order Appraisal
• Provide Notice of Loan Denial
• Settlement Date
• Settlement Date Extension Deadline
• Appraised Value Contingency
• Delivery of Termite/Moisture Reports
• HOA/Condo Contingency
• Delivery Deadline (PICA)
• Negotiation Period (PICA)
• Additional Day (PICA)

From ratification to closing, every deadline plays a role in keeping the transaction on track.

Day 11: ELEVEN words we hear again and again.

When clients take the time to leave a review, certain words seem to come up over and over:

Responsive, professional, knowledgeable, helpfuL, friendly, efficient, reliable, communicative, patient, thorough, and trusted.

We don't take those words lightly. They're a reflection of the experience we strive to provide every day, whether we're helping with a closing, a legal matter, or a complex transaction.

Day 7: SEVEN deals saved.

Not every transaction goes according to plan.

Title issues, financing hiccups, contract questions, missing documents, last-minute surprises... sometimes a deal needs a little extra help to make it across the finish line.

*TODAY* alone, our team helped save seven transactions that could have easily gone sideways.

Day 6: SIX breaches of contract. 👀📬

On average, our team sends around six breach of contract notices or demand letters each day to help clients protect their interests and keep transactions moving when possible.

It's not the most glamorous part of real estate law... but it's definitely part of the job.

Twenty years of Caplan means celebrating the wins and handling the challenges.
