About Me

Doreen Wentworth has been a stalwart in the title industry for over 25 years. As the Branch Manager at WFG National Title Company in Flower Mound, her mission is simple – kick butt and take names. Darla began her illustrious career in the title industry at Associated Land Title in Florida, before transferring to Texas where she has resided for the past twenty years. With her extensive experience, Doreen has garnered profound knowledge of real estate closings, lender operations, and all aspects of the title industry. Leveraging this expertise, she has assembled a formidable team capable of tackling any challenges encountered within title, closing, and funding. Some members of Doreen’s team have been together for nearly two decades. Regardless of individual experience, they all share a common drive to excel. They rely on each other to deliver exceptional results for the company and their clients, hence the motto, “Kicking butt.” No client or closing experience is ever forgotten. Over the years, Doreen and her team have curated a network of realtors, lenders, and real estate vendors they trust to advise and support their clients throughout their real estate transactions, from start to well beyond finish. Whether it’s a purchase or a refinance, Doreen and her team are confident in guiding clients through a process that can often be challenging and bewildering. There’s nothing more rewarding for them than seeing satisfied customers, knowing they’ve completed the transaction to the best of their abilities, and ensuring there will be no issues in the future. Doreen’s passion lies in working with her team and taking care of their clients. When she manages to escape the office, she loves traveling with her husband. Always ready to hit the road at any opportunity, they live with their bags packed. In the meantime, Doreen spends her days with their two furbabies, Arlo and Azra. Whether she’s in the office or exploring another country, Doreen believes in being the best, taking care of those close to her, and representing herself in a manner she can be proud of. For Doreen and her team, it’s not just about believing; it’s about doing it.

What IS Title insurance

Answering all your questions

Title is a bundle of rights in real property. Protecting purchasers and lenders against loss is accomplished by the issuance of a title insurance policy. Usually, during a purchase transaction the lender requests a policy (commonly referred to as the Lender’s Policy) while the buyers receive their own policy (commonly referred to as an Owner’s Policy).

In short, the policy states that if the status of the title to a parcel of real property is other than as represented, and if the insured for that loss and any related legal expenses, up to the face amount of the policy, subject to exceptions and exclusions contained in the policy.

Typically there are two policies issued. The Mortgagee’s Policy insures the lender for the amount of the loan. The Owner’s Policy insures the purchaser for the purchase price.

While the function of most other forms of insurance is risk assumption through the pooling of risks or losses arising out of unforeseen future events (such as sickness or accidents), the primary purpose of title insurance is to eliminate risks and prevent losses caused by defects in title arising out of events that have happened in the past. To achieve this goal, title insurers perform an extensive search and examination of the public records to determine whether there are any adverse claims (title defects) attached to the subject property. Said defects/claims are either eliminated prior to the issuance of a title policy or their existence is excepted from coverage. Your policy is issued after the closing of your new home, for a one-time nominal fee, and is good for as long as you own the property.

Immediately contact your escrow officer and notify them if someone is unable to attend or sign the closing documents for any reason.

An escrow is an arrangement in which a neutral third party (the escrow agent) assembles and processes many of the components of a real estate transaction, records the transaction, and ultimately, disburses and distributes funds according to the buyers’, sellers’ and lenders’ instructions. Your transaction is typically closed by an Escrow Officer. People buying and selling real estate usually open an escrow for their protection and convenience. Both the buyer and seller rely on the escrow agent to carry out their written instructions relating to the transaction and to advise them if any of their instructions are not mutually consistent or cannot be carried out. If the instructions from all parties to an escrow party are clearly drafted, the escrow officer can proceed on behalf of the buyer and seller without further consultation. This saves much time and facilitates the closing of the transaction.

Bring government issued identification card like a driver’s license or passport. Identification, must include a picture and signature for notary purposes. In the event that you are a borrower some lenders require two forms of identification so it is always best to have two forms of identification with you.
