The period of separation is measured from the date that you physically separate from your spouse (i.e., the date that you or your spouse begin living in separate residences). You may be able to obtain a divorce within 90 days from the date of filing for divorce if you are able to establish a fault-based ground for divorce. The fault-based grounds for divorce are adultery, physical abuse, and alcohol\/drug abuse. Generally, the Court will require that all of the issues resulting from your marriage including property division, custody, alimony, and child support be resolved prior to granting a divorce. This can often delay the period of time in which it takes to get divorced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Contact&#8221; module_id=&#8221;hidsec2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;gcid-2f3f3e09-0a26-4ea7-8906-5e1128945e3f&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;display:none;&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-2f3f3e09-0a26-4ea7-8906-5e1128945e3f%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Q: I have just signed a contract to buy real estate in Lancaster.

In South Carolina, most property is transferred by a deed which is recorded in the land records of the county in which the property is located.<\/span><\/h5>\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\">\n<div class=\"answerblock\">\n<p>When a property is sold, the abstractor or title examiner searches the land records for any title defects. Title defects refer to anything in the history of the ownership of the property that might impact the owner\u2019s right of title. This is important because a title defect could cause a new owner to lose all or part of the land. Title insurance protects the owner if a title defect is found after the property is purchased. This insurance is purchased at the time of closing and remains in effect at least as long as you own the property.<\/p>\n<p>Title issues usually occur because of improperly filed documents that are not found during a diligent search. However, as long as the diligent search was completed, the title examiner is not liable for the loss. Does this mean you have no recourse? A title insurance policy means that you don\u2019t lose your investment. The policy ensures that the insurance company will defend you against any claim on your ownership interest in your property at no additional cost. It also protects you against financial loss from a title defect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;15px||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Q: Why do I need title insurance if my title has been examined?<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #3c3a47; font-family: 'Proza Libre', serif;\"><span>A: When a property is sold in South Carolina, the abstractor must search the land records for any title defects. However, it\u2019s impossible to know that every deed, mortgage, or judgment affecting the property has been properly filed, whether all signatures are valid, or whether the previous owners or their heirs still have a claim to the property. If a title defect is found and you don\u2019t have title insurance, you could lose your property and your investment.<\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\"><\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;15px||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Q: I just received a tax bill for a property that I sold in Lancaster.
