Services
At Pelican Title, we provide comprehensive title and closing services for residential and commercial real estate transactions. As an attorney-led title agency, we combine legal expertise with efficient closing coordination to ensure every transaction closes smoothly, securely, and on time.
Title Insurance
Title insurance protects buyers and lenders against defects in title that could affect ownership of the property. Our team conducts the necessary review and issues title insurance policies through nationally recognized underwriters to ensure the transaction is protected from undiscovered liens, claims, or recording errors. This coverage provides peace of mind that ownership rights are secure both at closing and into the future.
Title Search & Examination
Every transaction begins with a thorough title search and examination of the property’s history. We review public records to identify prior ownership, liens, judgments, easements, restrictions, and other matters that could affect title. Our attorneys carefully analyze the results to resolve issues and confirm that clear, marketable title can be transferred at closing.
Escrow Services
We provide secure escrow services to safely hold and manage funds during the transaction process. Buyer deposits, lender funds, and closing proceeds are held in regulated escrow accounts until all conditions of the closing are satisfied. Our team coordinates the receipt, tracking, and disbursement of funds to ensure accuracy, compliance, and transparency.
Closing & Settlement Services
Our firm coordinates every step of the closing process from contract to final recording. We prepare settlement statements, coordinate with lenders, brokers, and attorneys, and manage the execution of all closing documents. Our goal is to ensure that every transaction closes efficiently, with clear communication and careful attention to detail.
Document Preparation
We prepare and review the legal documents necessary to complete each transaction. This includes deeds, affidavits, settlement statements, closing disclosures, and other instruments required for recording and transfer of ownership. All documents are prepared and reviewed by attorneys to ensure they are accurate, legally compliant, and properly executed for a smooth transfer of title.
1031 Exchange Services
For investors seeking to defer capital gains taxes through a 1031 exchange, we coordinate closely with qualified intermediaries and transaction participants. Our team ensures the closing process complies with the timing and structural requirements of the exchange. We help facilitate smooth closings for both relinquished and replacement properties so investors can complete their exchanges with confidence.
