The recorded facts on a building
— without opening escrow
A commercial property title report shows what the county records say about an apartment building, office property or mixed-use building: the owner of record and how title is vested, the deeds of trust and liens recorded against it, and the easements, CC&Rs and other documents that run with the land. A title company typically issues its preliminary report only after escrow opens, and commercial data subscriptions are built for daily users. TruPoint Legal runs individual uninsured reports at published prices, starting at $75 for an owner search, and emails the PDF, typically the same business day.
Built for the people who need
answers before escrow
Investors and buyers
Checking a building before you make an offer or sign a letter of intent, without opening escrow. See who holds title, the open loans, and the recorded easements and CC&Rs.
Commercial brokers
Most apartment and office buildings are held in an LLC or trust. Get the owner of record, the vesting entity and mailing address before off-market outreach or a listing call.
Contractors and vendors
Roofing, HVAC, plumbing or construction work on a multifamily or office building? A preliminary notice or mechanics lien needs the owner of record and the legal description.
Commercial tenants
Before signing a multi-year office lease, confirm the landlord on the lease is the owner of record and see whether open loans or default notices are recorded.
Law offices and paralegals
Litigation, judgment collection, partnership disputes or bankruptcy. Get every recorded transfer, lien and lis pendens in one report with copies of the documents.
Property managers and site acquisition
Taking on a building, or placing a rooftop telecom or solar lease? Confirm the owner entity, who can sign, and the easements already recorded.
