Comprehensive Commercial Title & Closing Solutions

Title Insurance & Risk Protection

Commercial properties come with higher risks and financial exposure than residential transactions. Our comprehensive title insurance policies safeguard against:

  • Undiscovered liens or encumbrances that could affect ownership rights
  • Errors in public records that could impact the property’s legal standing
  • Fraudulent transactions or forged documents in the property’s history
  • Unclear or disputed property boundaries
  • Undisclosed heirs or previous ownership claims

With title insurance from Francis Colonial Title, your investment is protected against these potential risks, ensuring a secure and confident transaction.

Title Search & Due Diligence

A clear and marketable title is essential in commercial real estate. Our team performs extensive title searches to verify ownership history, uncover any legal claims, and ensure that there are no surprises that could delay or derail your transaction.

Our due diligence process includes:

  • Review of past ownership and title transfers to ensure a clear chain of title
  •  Identification of existing liens, judgments, or unpaid property taxes
  • Checking for easements, restrictions, or rights-of-way that may impact property use
  • Confirming zoning, land use, and compliance with local regulations

By conducting a rigorous title review, we help prevent legal and financial complications down the road.

Survey & Zoning Compliance

Before purchasing or developing a commercial property, you need accurate surveys and zoning verification to avoid potential issues. We coordinate:

  •  ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys to confirm exact property boundaries, easements, and improvements
  •  Zoning and land use verifications to ensure your planned development complies with local regulations
  • Environmental reports and assessments to uncover any liabilities related to past property use
  • Utility and access rights research to confirm necessary infrastructure and legal access

Whether you’re developing a new project, expanding an existing property, or acquiring investment real estate, we help ensure that your transaction aligns with local laws, zoning codes, and lender requirements.

Secure Escrow & Closing Services

Commercial transactions often involve multiple stakeholders, including lenders, investors, attorneys, and government entities. Our escrow and closing services provide a secure, neutral third-party to handle:

  • Holding and disbursing funds safely according to the closing agreement
  • Facilitating the signing and notarization of key legal documents
  • Coordinating with all parties to meet closing deadline
  • Ensuring all outstanding liens, title issues, and legal concerns are resolved before closing

Our escrow team follows strict security protocols to protect wire transfers and prevent fraud, ensuring your funds and assets remain safe throughout the transaction.





Lender & Investor Support

Commercial real estate financing involves complex agreements, structured loans, and institutional underwriting. We work closely with lenders and investors to ensure:

  •  Loan documents are reviewed for title compliance
  • Title policies meet lender requirements for securing the property
  •  Priority liens are properly recorded to protect the lender’s interest
  • Multi-property and multi-state transactions are coordinated efficiently

Whether it’s a construction loan, refinancing, or commercial mortgage, our title professionals ensure your lender’s requirements are fully met so financing can proceed smoothly.
