The chain of title is the sequential history of all transfers of ownership for a specific property, from the original source (typically a government patent or grant) to the present owner. An unbroken chain is essential for marketable title.

The closing process, also called settlement, is the final step in a real estate transaction where documents are signed, funds are disbursed, and title is officially transferred from the seller to the buyer.

Constructive notice is the legal presumption that a person has knowledge of information that is available through public records or visible inspection of the property, regardless of whether they actually knew about it.
