Title Search Services

Professional Title Search Services — Accurate Property Ownership Research and Public Record Data Entry

We provide expert title search services for title companies, real estate attorneys, mortgage lenders, abstractors and real estate settlement professionals that need property ownership history research, deed record data entry, lien searches, tax record research and public record examination conducted accurately and efficiently by a professional offshore team in India.

Title search accuracy is critical in real estate transactions. An incomplete chain of title creates legal risk for buyers and lenders. A missed lien creates financial liability that should have been disclosed before closing. An incorrectly recorded deed reference creates a title defect that delays or prevents transaction completion. Our professional real estate data entry team conducts title research and data entry with the accuracy and attention to detail that real estate title work demands.

We serve title companies, real estate attorneys, mortgage companies, abstractors and settlement agents across the USA that need cost-effective offshore support for title search data entry, deed research and public record analysis. All title search work is handled under strict NDA and confidentiality protocols.

Public record database research support

Title search is one of the most labour-intensive processes in real estate transactions. Every property requires a complete review of the public record — deeds conveying ownership, mortgages and deeds of trust, liens, judgments, tax records, easements and other encumbrances — going back a legally required number of years to establish a clear chain of title.

For high-volume title operations, the research and data entry component of title search creates significant capacity constraints. Our offshore title search support team handles the public record research, data entry and abstract preparation support tasks that can be reliably performed from available county record databases and online public record systems — reducing the workload on your licensed title examiners so they can focus on title examination, defect resolution and closing support.

We understand that title search data accuracy has direct legal and financial consequences. Our title data entry team is trained on real estate record types, legal description formats, deed conveyance terminology and lien record structures specific to US property transactions.

Services We Offer

Comprehensive title search support and real estate public record data entry

Each service is performed with careful attention to record accuracy, chain of title completeness and exception documentation for items requiring licensed title examiner review.

Ownership History and Chain of Title Research

Property ownership history research — tracing the chain of title from the current owner back through previous owners for the required search period, identifying each deed conveyance in the chain, recording grantor and grantee names, conveyance dates, instrument numbers, deed book and page references, and legal descriptions into your title search report format or abstracting system. Chain of title completeness is the foundation of every title examination. A gap in the ownership chain — a missed deed, an unrecorded conveyance or an incorrect grantee name — creates a title defect that must be resolved before closing. We research ownership chains systematically, flagging any period where the chain is unclear for licensed title examiner review.

Deed Record Data Entry and Abstract Support

Deed data entry and abstract preparation support — entering deed record details from county recorder databases, online public record systems and physical document sources into your abstracting software or title plant system. Deed data includes instrument number, recording date, effective date, grantor name, grantee name, consideration, legal description, deed type and any conditions or reservations noted. Abstract preparation support involves organising and documenting deed records in chronological sequence with correct cross-references to support the licensed examiner's title examination process.

Lien, Mortgage and Encumbrance Search

Lien and encumbrance search data entry — researching and recording mortgages, deeds of trust, mechanic's liens, judgment liens, UCC financing statements, federal and state tax liens, HOA assessment liens and other encumbrances affecting title from county recorder, court record and tax authority databases. Lien search completeness is a critical component of marketable title. Undisclosed liens survive property transfers and create post-closing liability for buyers, lenders and their title insurers. We research lien records systematically across the required search parties and record period, with specific documentation of every encumbrance identified.

Property Tax Record Research

Property tax record research — identifying current and prior year property tax status from county assessor and tax collector databases, recording assessed value, tax year, payment status, delinquency amounts and tax sale history for the subject property. Tax delinquency creates a priority lien that must be disclosed and resolved before closing. Tax sale history may affect title depending on the jurisdiction's tax sale redemption rules. We research property tax records for the required period and document tax status clearly in your search report format.

Legal Description Verification

Legal description data entry and verification — entering legal descriptions from deeds, surveys and tax records into your title search report, checking legal description consistency across the chain of title and flagging any discrepancy between the legal description in a conveyance and the expected description for the subject property. Legal description discrepancies — lot number errors, metes and bounds inconsistencies, subdivision plat reference errors — create title examination issues that must be investigated and resolved before title can be insured. We identify and flag legal description discrepancies rather than assuming they are harmless.

Title Search Data Entry for High-Volume Operations

High-volume title search data entry support for title companies and abstracting firms — processing large volumes of title search reports, entering research findings from county database searches, organising abstract packages and providing the data entry throughput that allows your title company to handle more orders without proportionally increasing licensed examiner headcount. High-volume title operations benefit most from offshore title search support — the research and data entry component of title search is time-consuming and volume-dependent, making it well-suited to offshore capacity augmentation.

How It Works

How we manage title search projects

Sample and Scope Review

Before any work begins, we review your source files, required output fields, formatting rules, turnaround expectations and system-specific requirements.

NDA and Secure Setup

We sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before any files, access or project details are shared. Transfer and access methods are confirmed to your security requirements.

Pilot Batch

A controlled pilot batch is processed and delivered for your review before paid production begins. All adjustments are applied before full production starts.

Controlled Production

Full production runs in planned batches with quality checks at every phase. Exception items are documented specifically — not left mixed in the output.

Quality Review

A reviewer separate from production operators checks each batch before delivery. Exception items are documented with record reference and issue noted.

Delivery and Improvement

Files are delivered with a structured exception log. Feedback is applied immediately. Recurring clients benefit from a dedicated team that learns their preferences over time.

Client Feedback

What title and real estate clients say about our services

★★★★★

SDES keeps unclear items separate with specific notes on every batch. That single difference has made the outsourcing arrangement genuinely low-maintenance. Two years in and quality has been consistent throughout.

Operations Manager Business Services Company, USA

★★★★★

Running a pilot batch before full production was what made us comfortable committing. SDES processed our sample, showed exactly how exceptions would be handled and made adjustments before regular production began.

Data Manager Professional Services, United Kingdom

★★★★★

The cost saving versus local vendors is substantial but what keeps us with SDES is that they communicate clearly, flag problems early and deliver reliably. That combination is harder to find than low rates alone.
