Title insurance protects against loss of ownership interest in real property due to legal defects in title. Title insurance is typically required when property is financed through a mortgage.

The most common form is lender’s title insurance, which is paid for by the borrower but protects only the lender’s financial interest in the property.

C.G.S. §38a-402 – see Title 38a* Insurance
