Title Search in Colorado: Your Comprehensive Guide
- Locate the real estate on the assessor’s page and obtain the assessed value, parcel number and other pertinent information.
- Review the tax status from the county tax collector to determine if the taxes are paid, due or delinquent.
- Search the owner and property through the county recorder’s property records to find applicable deeds, open mortgages, mortgage associated documents, foreclosure cases, judgments, liens, as well as any other documents that are relevent to the title.
- It’s a good practice to also review judgments and liens filed in civil records.

The High Stakes: Why Title Search is Crucial in Colorado
If you’re purchasing a property, it’s important to know of any outstanding debt since delinquent taxes and certain liens such as municipal liens will stay with the property even after the sale and become your responsibility.
Two Sides of the Coin: Comparing Residential and Commercial Title Searches
A property will be zoned either residential or commercial. A residential property is zoned specifically for living or dwelling for households. Single-family homes, duplexes and townhouses are examples of residential real estate. A commercial property is one that has the potential to generate profit. Farmland, garages, office buildings, retail stores and hospitals are examples of commercial real estate. A commercial title search will typically uncover documents that you don’t see on residential searches such as leases, assignments of rents, and UCCs. Residential searches are typically completed within 24-48 business hours; however, commercial searches can take up to 72 business hours as they are generally more complex.

Testimonials





“I'm so impressed with ProTitleUSA. I purchased a title search on a property at 10:02 PM Tuesday evening. The 52 page report was in my inbox at 12:26 PM Wednesday morning. We didn't even pay for the expedited processing. The report includes so much more background than I ever imagined. If I ever have a future need for a title search, I'll definitely work with ProTitleUSA.” –MS
