For commercial lenders, attorneys, agents and investors: collect the item numbers, source instruments, timing pressure and one process question before exception review becomes a scramble.
A commercial file, investor purchase, lender request or attorney-led transaction can stall when Schedule B or Schedule C questions arrive as screenshots, pasted language or broad conclusions. This handoff keeps the packet concrete: schedule, item number, source, timing and next question.
Send the complete commitment and list each item as a source lane: recorded instrument, survey, payoff, tax, entity, lender, attorney or unknown. WG Title can route the process question; legal advice and underwriting decisions stay in their proper lanes.
These public sources were checked on August 25, 2026. They help a transaction professional organize a better first packet, but they do not decide legal effect, title status, coverage, insurability, underwriting, survey matters, lien priority or closing timing.
TDI's promulgated Commitment for Title Insurance form names Schedule B as Exceptions from Coverage and Schedule C as requirements that must be satisfied before the policy is issued.
Read the source ->TDI explains that the title commitment comes before closing, lists potential issues, exclusions or exceptions and does not guarantee that no current or future issue exists.
Read the source ->The Basic Manual defines a commitment as an offer to issue a policy subject to stated exceptions, requirements and terms, and says the commitment is not an abstract of title.
Read the source ->TDI's insuring-forms index identifies Form T-7 as the Commitment for Title Insurance. A handoff should preserve the issuing commitment, GF or commitment number and exact schedule item numbers.
Read the source ->TDI's P-53 framework prohibits rebates, discounts and other things of value tied to solicitation or referral of title-insurance business. This page is available on the same terms to everyone.
Read the source ->The best exception note identifies exactly where the question lives and what source material is already attached. That makes it easier to route the item to title, escrow, lender, underwriting, survey or attorney review without turning the public note into an opinion request.
This public resource is available to anyone on the same terms. It is not conditioned on sending a closing to WG Title and it does not offer a rebate, discount, commission, gift or thing of value for a referral.
Prepared as a courtesy. This document is available to any real estate professional on the same terms and is not conditioned on directing a closing to WG Title.
WG Title provides title and escrow services, not legal advice. WG Law is a separate, independently operated company and any relationship with it is governed by its own engagement.
Read TDI Procedural Rule P-53 ->This uses the existing closing-readiness form. The page URL, referrer, UTM fields and click IDs stay with the lead record, so the title team can see that the question came from this Texas title exception handoff.
Do not paste full commitment language, wire instructions, account numbers, taxpayer credentials, Social Security numbers, identity-document numbers, confidential contracts or client documents into this form.
