Send the contract, property details and the question that needs an answer before the file gets tight.
Send the right facts before the closing gets tight.
A practical starting point for the agents, lenders, attorneys, investors and sellers who put a Texas transaction in motion. Use it to organize the handoff, surface title questions early and open a file with less back-and-forth.
Every deal starts with a different person.
WG Title is put on a contract or referred into a transaction by a real estate agent, lender, homeowner, investor, attorney or builder. This desk gives each of them the same simple starting point: send what you know, name what you do not know, and let the title team identify the next step.
Give the title team the lender, borrower and property information needed to coordinate a clean handoff.
Flag probate, estate, lien or ownership questions early so the right people can review them.
Share the deal structure and known title facts before you spend time underwriting a problem property.
Start with the address and your timing. WG Title can explain the next title and escrow step without guessing at the final figures.
Give the title team the five facts.
Jamie Ellis authored this educational handoff for the people who move a transaction forward. Share what you know, even if a few pieces are still being confirmed; the team can tell you what to gather next.
This form starts a title conversation. It is not a title quote, underwriting decision, legal advice or promise of a closing date.
Make the first email or form submission count.
You do not need a perfect file to start. These details help the team route the question and tell you what is missing.
- Property address and county
- Who is sending the file and who the decision-makers are
- Contract status, target closing date and financing status
- Known liens, probate, divorce, bankruptcy, trusts or ownership changes
- The one question you want the title team to answer first
Collin County is full of moving parts.
New construction, resales, investor purchases, estate transitions and commercial activity can look very different on paper. A short, specific handoff helps the people responsible for the closing see the same transaction sooner.
For current county and public-record information, start with the relevant county office or public agency. WG Title can help explain the title and escrow workflow; it does not replace legal advice, underwriting or the final settlement figures.
Read Texas title-insurance guidance at TDI ↗For builders, developers and acreage files, send the context early.
Public infrastructure and county-process updates do not decide title, and they are not a substitute for county, lender, underwriting or legal review. They do help everyone ask a more precise first question before a transaction becomes urgent.
Subdivision, floodplain and county rules
Collin County Engineering has noticed an August 3, 2026 public hearing on proposed revisions to subdivision, floodplain and manufactured-home rental-community regulations. If a deal depends on dividing, replatting or developing land, send the title team the county question you are trying to resolve.
Read the public source ->Roadway and access context
The county's roadway project list shows active design, right-of-way and construction updates across North Texas corridors. For builder, developer and acreage files, identify whether access, easements or right-of-way documents are part of the first title question.
Read the public source ->Outer Loop proximity
The Outer Loop is a planned 55-mile multi-modal facility through cities including Celina, Weston, Anna, Melissa, Farmersville, Josephine and Royse City. If a property sits near a planned segment, include the segment or map reference with the handoff.
