So, what is title insurance?
Title insurance protects a buyer from any defects or future claims against the title which were unknown at the time of purchase. This means that you’ll be protected against financial loss if a former owner claims that he or she never sold the property to the seller of your property, which means the seller of the property didn’t have a right to sell it to you.
Title insurance is a bank requirement if you are financing your condo purchase.

The New York City and New York State Mortgage Recording Tax of 2.05% to 2.8% is the largest closing cost for condo buyers in NYC. Buyers of co-ops in NYC do not have to pay the mortgage recording tax because the tax is imposed on ‘real property’ and co-ops are not ‘real property.’
