What it does not cover
Records start in 1978: a purchase before then has its deed read by book and page, but earlier loans are not searched.
Documents are tied to the property by parcel number, street address or lot and subdivision; any tied only by the owner's name are marked. Where a satisfaction cannot be matched exactly to its loan, the report says so.
Loans of earlier owners are not searched under the seller's name, loan amounts are not published, and delinquent property taxes are not searched.
Judgments docketed with the Clerk of Superior Court are not searched.
The report is a public-records search, not title insurance or an attorney's opinion of title.

Is this title insurance?
No. HeritageDeed provides title search reports on the public record. It does not sell or underwrite title insurance, and a lender closing a mortgage will still require a title insurance commitment from a licensed insurer.
