A professional abstractor (person who searches county, state and municipal records) can provide their services to title agencies. The method of their delivery is up to what works best for them, whether it be fax, overnight or online/electronic delivery. Most title agencies insist that their abstractors have several years experience in the business, since each state, city or county's record keeping methods vary from state to state. An abstractor typically goes to the county clerk or munipality to research the property. Some states/counties have their records available online, either free to the public or by subscription. It is important that the abstractor is thorough in their research of a property.

It is always in a buyer's best interest, however, if no Deed Restrictions or Homeowner's Association appear to have been recorded, to have the Title company doing the closing prepare an affidavit for the seller to sign stating that there are no known deed restricitons or homeowner's association in which mandatory dues must be paid.
