Whether you're looking to begin a new career, expand your real estate knowledge, or add valuable skills to your business, this course will teach you the complete title searching process used by professionals.Welcome to LearnTitleSearching.com
At LearnTitleSearching.com, we specialize in one thing: teaching people how to perform professional real estate title searches.
Our training is built on decades of real-world experience in real estate title searching and title abstracting. We don't simply teach definitions or provide general information about public records. Our goal is to teach students the actual process of researching a property's title—from identifying the current owner to building the chain of title and searching for documents and encumbrances that may affect the property.
Our training is designed for individuals interested in becoming professional title abstractors, as well as real estate professionals, investors, attorneys, title companies, and others who want a practical understanding of the title search process.
Attorneys and title companies have also used our training platform to help train title abstractors and employees involved in real estate title research.
There is an important difference between learning about title searching and learning how to perform a title search.
A professional title search can involve much more than locating a deed. An abstractor must understand where records are maintained, how documents are indexed, how ownership transfers from one party to another, and how to recognize issues that require additional research.
Our training covers subjects including:
Most importantly, we teach students how these records work together when performing an actual title search.
Our course is designed around the procedures a title abstractor may encounter in real-world assignments.
Students learn how to begin with a parcel of real estate, identify the appropriate public records, determine ownership, follow transfers of title, research documents affecting the property, and organize their findings into a professional title search report.
Training includes practical examples, demonstrations, exercises, and an opportunity to work through the title search process.
Our objective is simple:
When someone gives you a property to search, we want you to understand where to start, what records to search, what to look for, and how to document what you find.
Title searching doesn't always follow a perfect textbook example.
Eventually, you may encounter a deed you don't understand, a break in the chain of title, an old mortgage without an obvious release, a probate issue, an unusual legal description, or another record that raises questions.
That is where having access to experienced assistance becomes especially valuable.
Students at LearnTitleSearching.com have access to personal support for questions about the course and title searching.

Title searching isn't simply one subject among dozens of unrelated careers that we teach.
Title searching is our specialty.
Our title abstracting training program includes:
Students can work through the material at their own pace and revisit the training as permitted under the course access terms provided at enrollment.
Students learn how the different pieces of a title search fit together.
That includes researching property and tax information, locating recorded instruments, identifying the current owner, following the chain of title, reviewing deeds and legal descriptions, researching mortgages and releases, searching for applicable liens and judgments, reviewing probate records when necessary, and examining other recorded documents that may affect the property.
The goal is not simply to recognize these documents.
The goal is to understand how to search for them, evaluate them, and report your findings.
For students interested in working independently, our training also addresses practical business considerations associated with entering the title abstracting field.
Topics may include:
We believe learning the technical side of title searching is only part of becoming a successful independent abstractor. Students should also understand how the profession operates in the real world.
Our training was developed from decades of experience with real estate title searching and public records.
That experience matters.
Title abstracting requires research, attention to detail, judgment, persistence, and an understanding of how real estate records connect. Those skills are difficult to develop from a booklet or presentation containing only general information.
We believe students should learn title searching from people who understand how title searches are actually performed.
That is the philosophy behind LearnTitleSearching.com.
We encourage prospective students to research any title abstracting training program before enrolling.

Don't just learn about title searching. Learn how to perform a title search.
