Title closers collect all documents having to do with properties requiring titles. They
make sure that the title is clear and good for the buyer and that the lender is the first lien
holder on the property. Title closers will have a myriad of papers for buyers to sign. The
closers need to be knowledgeable about all of them in order to answer questions buyers
might have. Closers must also know the procedures of a title search and common
problems that might arise during it. In addition, they must know about all of the different
charges the title company collects at a closing.
