Default 2 kinds of title insurance

If you have a mortgage, the bank will normally require you to buy a lender's title insurance policy, which only protects them - the lender, from defects in the title. Optionally, whether you have a mortgage or not, you can elect to purchase an owner's title insurance policy, which protects you, the owner.
