Who orders this: lenders and borrowers refinancing
Lenders usually send the request for each file, and borrowers or their representatives may call to ask how to place an order. Either way, one local office handles it for a Tioga County property.
Title search for refinance in Tioga County: how it works
A refinance title search starts with a call or fax. It is the same detailed 60-year search we run for a purchase, so lenders can order it the same way every time.
When your loan is ready to close, our witness closings have papers signed and notarized the same day.

To order a refinance title search without delay, include:
- Property address or parcel identification
- Owner names
- The type of search, such as the 60-year title search
