Quite important! When you roll the dice on title you can end up puchasing a property with unmarketable title aka "full of someone else's liens"!

Title insurance is important unless you don't care if someone else asserts a preemptive right to the title to your property.

Also, title insurance is not an option if you are financing your purchase. Your lender will insist that you buy title insurance to protect their collateral...the property upon which they are lending.

VERY! Having title insurance saved me from having to pay off a $10,000 lien that wasn't removed when I purchased the property.  It couldn't be sold to the new buyer without that lien being paid.  The title company paid it.

Of all the tools in real estate - feasibility studies, inspections, neighborhood review - even though these are primarily (but not totally) are tools to protect the buyer from physical condition problems - title insurance is the most important buyer protection there is. If the title company won't provide title insurance - it's a pretty good indicator that you may want to pass. Of course like everything else - there probably are situations where there's an exception. But even then it'would be time to proceed with extreme caution and with the guidance/advice of an attorney.

It is a must, with such a low cost, it is insurance you can not afford to have. 1 hours of lawyer fees can wipe out any savings

Why don't you do at least a minimal amount of research and NOT ask a question that gets asked at least once a week? If you don't do some thinking for yourself you will be a failure Kenya Monterrosas . If I were you the 1st question I'd ask is why are you paying some huckster for a really crapopy education.

Pretty important. Also the older the property, the more important it becomes, including the more important "enhanced" title insurance becomes as well!
