Escrow & TitleIntermediateArizona Exam

A title insurance lender's policy (also called a mortgagee's policy) in Arizona protects:

AThe buyer/borrower's equity
BThe lender's security interest up to the loan amountCorrect
CThe title company from errors
DThe seller from post-sale claims

Why The lender's security interest up to the loan amount Is Correct

Answer B: The lender's security interest up to the loan amount

The lender's title insurance policy protects the lender's (mortgagee's) security interest in the property up to the outstanding loan balance. It does not protect the buyer—a separate owner's policy is needed for that.

Exam Tip: Escrow & Title

Escrow questions test the neutral third-party role and the sequence of closing events. Remember that the escrow agent acts as a dual agent for both buyer and seller and cannot advocate for either side.
