36 What is the objective of the Title Insurance Company?

(Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys (Effective 2/23/2011), 2011)
37 What is Title Insurance and Why Should Surveyors Care? The title company is required to issue an extended coverage title insurance policy with certain endorsements. In order to provide this policy, the title company needs a survey that addresses the specific issues being insured.
