For Title & Escrow Officers
You are the person in the middle. Buyer’s counsel emails to demand exceptions 8, 11, and 14 come off Schedule B. The lender’s closing instructions demand a clean survey with no encroachments and every standard exception insured over. Both cannot be fully satisfied, and both are waiting on you.
To make the call you have to know precisely what the survey shows against each exception — the encroachment that crosses a boundary line, the fence that implies a boundary agreement, the overlap that hints at a gap. Then you have to defend the insure-over decision to underwriting with something better than a hunch.
Doing that reconciliation by hand, per file, is the quiet bottleneck that slows every approval you touch.
How it works
Get an instant, cited map of every Schedule B-II exception against what the survey actually depicts — so the clean items clear fast and only the real risks escalate.
Drop in the Title Commitment and the ALTA survey. The engine reads the plat and the Schedule B text directly — no manual matching.
It ties each Schedule B-II exception to what the survey shows — encroachments, boundary gaps and overlaps, easement conflicts, access — and flags the material items against agency standards.
Walk into the insure-over decision with each finding quoted to the source. Clear the clean exceptions immediately; escalate only the anomalies that genuinely warrant a cure or an endorsement.
The manual survey-to-Schedule-B reconciliation gates nearly every underwriting decision you make. Compressing it from an afternoon to minutes speeds approvals across your entire desk.
For $39 a file you get the cited data to justify insuring over an encroachment, resolve boundary-agreement questions faster, and keep both counsel and the lender moving — without carrying the risk of an undocumented call.
Frequently asked
You need to know exactly what the survey shows against each Schedule B exception — the extent of the encroachment, whether it crosses a boundary line, and whether an endorsement or a cure is warranted. A cited survey-to-Schedule-B map supports the insure-over decision.
Start from a reconciliation of the survey against the title commitment that flags gaps, overlaps, and fence-line boundary questions, so the clean items clear immediately and only genuine anomalies escalate to underwriting.
Replace the manual survey-to-commitment reconciliation that gates each decision with an instant, cited map of every exception — clearing the clean exceptions in minutes and documenting the calls that need review.
