With mortgage rates currently exceeding last year's levels, the housing market is struggling to gain momentum. Higher rates are hitting sales from both sides—pricing out buyers who lose purchasing power and keeping potential sellers locked into their existing rates. This dual impact makes it a tough environment for anyone looking to buy or sell a home. #Housing #InterestRates #RealEstate

Remember when scammers made fake documents to try and auction off Elvis’ Graceland estate? Sadly, these scams aren’t limited to the rich and famous. The Wall Street Journal has a great rundown of what homeowners need to learn from this episode -- and how title insurance can help protect you from scammers. More people are closing on real estate from afar, and record-breaking home equity offers a valuable target for scammers. That’s why First American Title’s Sarah Frano, an expert in real estate fraud, says “there has been a sharp rise in seller impersonation fraud over the past few years, where a fraudster impersonates an owner by forging a deed conveying property to an unsuspecting buyer.” Thanks to diligent title searches and record keeping by First American and other title companies, the risk of losing your home through these scams is low, but fraudulent deeds and mortgages can still be incredibly costly. To protect yourself, Sarah recommends setting up a Google alert for your address so you can stop a fraudulent home sale before it happens. And critically, a First American Eagle title insurance policy “will cover you for losses you incur due to fraud or forgery” either before or after you purchase a home. Homeownership, and the entire real estate sector, depend on accurate property records. Title companies proactively find and correct millions of property records every month, and they have your back when scammers strike. #TitleInsurance #Homeownership #FraudPrevention
