Nassau County Title Search Update

A Title Search Update, also known as a Continuation Search (or "contin"), brings a previously completed Nassau County title search forward to the current effective date. It captures any new deeds, mortgages, liens, judgments, lis pendens, or other recorded instruments that arose after the original search was completed.

This search is commonly required when a transaction has been delayed past the effective date of the original abstract, or when an underwriter requires re-certification of a prior search before closing.

Results are delivered as a professionally prepared update to the prior abstract in PDF format, clearly indicating the period covered by the continuation.
