What is a Property Profile?

A Property Profile is a free report provided by title companies that offers an overview of public information on a specific parcel of real estate. It’s designed to give agents, buyers, lenders, and investors a quick look at the property’s ownership history, assessed value, current vesting, tax details, and key details before a transaction even begins.

While a property profile is not a legal document, it’s an essential tool for preparing listings, verifying ownership, or researching potential investments. It does not carry insurance or guarantees like a Preliminary Title Report, but it can help you catch red flags early.

  • Current Ownership/Vesting Information

Why Property Profiles Matter

Before opening escrow, many agents and investors request a property profile to get insight into the property’s history and current status. Unlike a prelim, which is part of a formal title insurance process, property profiles are fast, informal, and incredibly useful for:

  • Verifying seller ownership
  • Researching investment properties
  • Preparing listing packages
  • Understanding tax liability or existing liens

They help avoid surprises and position you to act quickly in a competitive market.
