Defensible Title Sample Clauses
A Defensible Title clause ensures that the seller guarantees the buyer will receive a property title that is legally valid and free from significant defects or claims. In practice, this means the seller must resolve any liens, encumbrances, or ownership disputes before the transaction closes, so the buyer can take ownership without risk of future legal challenges. The core function of this clause is to protect the buyer by ensuring they receive clear and marketable title, thereby reducing the risk of future disputes over property ownership.
