Who Actually Owns the Property? Title Surprises Every Realtor Must Catch Early 6.3.26

The contract is signed, the deal is moving — and then a title issue surfaces that nobody saw coming. Sound familiar?

Join Estate Planning Attorney Matthew Unzicker for a practical, Realtor-focused class on the ownership and title issues that most commonly blindside agents and derail transactions. From trusts and LLCs to divorces, probate matters, and improper vesting, this session gives you the tools to spot red flags early — before they become closing nightmares.

You’ll learn how to read ownership documents with a sharper eye, recognize the warning signs that signal legal complications, and know exactly when to bring in an attorney to protect your clients and keep your deals on track.

What you’ll learn:

  • How trusts, LLCs, and entity ownership affect a transaction — and what to watch for
  • Title issues that commonly arise from divorce and probate situations
  • What improper vesting looks like and why it matters
  • How to read ownership documents and identify potential red flags early
  • When and how to involve an attorney before a title issue becomes a deal-breaker
