Residential Title Insurance

Orleans Title Insurance Agency, L.L.C. (Orleans Title) is Steeg Law’s in-house title insurance agency for Residential closings. Orleans Title offers a more personal experience for our residential title insurance clients than larger title agencies because of the number and experience of our title examiners. Our title attorneys frequently find title issues overlooked by prior closing agencies and are often able to find creative solutions to solve the title issue in a timely manner. Whether you are purchasing, selling or refinancing a $42,000 lot or a $3,000,000 home, we treat each transaction with the same importance.

Residential Closing Fees

To help our residential real estate clients better understand the costs associated with their closings, our title attorneys have established fee schedules that are applicable for residential properties only and represent a typical closing.

Closing Cost Estimator

Orleans Title has provided a schedule of fees for purchasers, sellers and refinances. We would be happy to provide a more transaction specific quote via our Closing Cost Estimator
