Our house is not marketable due to errors during the Title investigation. They clearly had a survey in hand and missed all the measurements that do not match the recorded plat with the city. They were able to determine our property encroached the easement on one side, but missed that our house is encroaching ten feet on the property on the other.
The examiner was definitely sleeping at the wheel. We filed a claim with Chicago Title and they wanted nothing to do with the situation. They also couldn't tell us why we paid for an extra risk policy. They apparently knew something was wrong.
We were hoping that they would own up to their mistake and take care of the issue. Do yourself a favor and choose a company that will actually cover you.
