Borrowers are required to obtain title insurance for the lender to eliminate any issues with others having an ownership interest or right to your property. If you purchased an owner's title policy or if you go back to the same settlement agent that order title for your purchase, you may be able to reduce the title costs by using the existing title policy. Please feel free to call if you are interested in refinancing. As noted below with current rates rolling in closing costs into the new loan amount may still give you a savings in monthly payment or loan term. Hope this answers helped.
