Bentonville Title & Closing FAQ
Clear answers to common questions about closing in Bentonville and Benton County.
-
Who pays for owner’s title insurance in Arkansas?
In Arkansas, the seller customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and the buyer customarily pays for the lender’s policy, though either can be negotiated in your contract. How the two policies differ.
-
How much does title insurance cost in Bentonville, Arkansas?
You pay for title insurance just once, a single premium at closing, and we'll give you the exact figure up front, so the cost never catches you off guard. What you pay is based on your deal: the purchase price sets the owner's policy and the loan amount sets the lender's policy, so a bigger purchase means a bigger premium. Arkansas doesn't set one statewide rate, and pricing can vary from one title insurance underwriter to the next, which is why there's no flat "it costs $X" answer. The surest way to know your number is to ask us, and we'll have it ready well before you sign.
-
Where is my deed recorded in Benton County?
Deeds in Bentonville and the rest of Benton County are recorded with the Benton County Circuit Clerk’s office, which acts as the county recorder. We handle recording for you as part of our standard closing workflow.
-
Do I need an attorney to close on a home in Arkansas?
No, Arkansas allows a title or abstract company to handle your closing. If a title issue comes up, our team can work through any issues that may arise to keep your closing timeline on track.
-
Do I need to use a Title Company if I'm paying cash?
Paying cash means you have more of your own money at risk if a past title problem surfaces. It’s a one-time premium that protects you for as long as you own the home. It is always best practice when purchasing real estate to have an Owner's Title insurance policy. More on owner’s coverage.
-
What’s the difference between a deed and a title?
A deed is the signed document that transfers ownership and gets recorded with the county. A title is your actual legal ownership of the property. The deed is how the title gets transferred to you.
-
How do I send my closing funds safely?
By wire transfer or certified/cashier’s check, never a personal check. Always verify wiring instructions by calling our office directly before sending. Read our wire-safety guidance.
