Title Commitment
	The commitment for Title Insurance is issued only as a preliminary instrument in instances in which the title company has a bona fide order for the policy or policies of Title Insurance specified therein, to be issued within 90 days from the effective date of the Commitment. Basically, the Commitment for Title Insurance informs those to be insured by a title policy of the condition of the property involved.  In addition, it informs the future insured of any requirements that must be met before a policy will be issued.  The Seller is required to furnish the Commitment to the Purchaser as noted in the contract for sale.  If a loan is part of the transaction, the Lender will require a Commitment at some time during the procession of the loan. A Commitment for Title Insurance consists of four schedules: Schedule A.  Sets out the effective date of the commitment, the names of the insured, the sale price, loan amount, the estate or interest in the land (fee simple, Easement estate, leasehold estate, etc.), the name of the person(s) in title at the date of the Commitment and the legal description of the property under consideration. Schedule B.  Informs the insured of everything of record that affects the property, such as restrictions, liens, oil and gas reservations, easements and so on, guarantees ad Val Orem taxes are paid current through a designated year and in general, limits the liability of the policies to be issued. Schedule C.  Informs the insured of any requirements that must be met before a policy will be issued. Schedule D.  According to the State Rules and Regulations, is a disclosure of the officers of the Title Company and Underwriter, it also discloses the premiums to be charged for the policy and the beneficiary of such premiums.
