Prior to working on a
new job site, do your research and pull a "Certified Copy of Title".
Title searches give you an abundance of information - legal land
description, owner name & address, and details about registered
interests involving the property. Titles can also be used as a risk
management tool. If you check a title prior to beginning work at a new
site, you will be able to see if there are any liens registered against
the property. The presence of a lien can be a "red flag" and you should
proceed with caution. Do some digging - was the lien filed as a
precautionary measure to protect the lienor's interest? Are there
problems with payment? If so, could this mean you might have problems
too? You will never know the reason for the lien being in place until
you ask!
Protect yourself from the get go and pull a title. For more information contact Alysia at 1-866-266-0117 ext. 351
