So, to put it simply, a seller would be able to convey marketable title if an examination shows no doubt as to their ownership of the property and that there are no clouds or encumbrances which would not be cleared at the closing of the transaction. Insurable title calls for a somewhat less rigid standard when compared to a marketable title. An insurable title may contain some cloud or defect that would otherwise make it unmarketable, but a reputable title insurer has been informed of the defect and agrees to offer title insurance that affirmatively covers the buyer or does not except to the defect.
In other words, there can be a known problem affecting the title, but the title insurer will protect the buyer from damages or losses which may result from that problem, up to the limits of the title insurance policy. Common defects found in insurable titles include uncanceled prior owner mortgages, questionable easements for access, and unresolved judgment liens against prior owners.
Knowing the difference between marketable and insurable title will help buyers understand what they are purchasing. Buying property with insurable title is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is important to know the implications and potential problems with buying property under this standard.
