How do I protect a vacant or inherited Mount Pleasant house from deed theft while it is listed?

Protecting a vacant or inherited Mount Pleasant house from deed theft starts with checking the county register of deeds periodically for any unauthorized filing, keeping the property visibly occupied or monitored, and working with a title company that flags suspicious activity before closing. Title insurance also protects a buyer and lender if a fraudulent filing surfaces later. Brian recommends this check as a standard step for any vacant listing.
