Default Title search and title insurance

As I have only a knowledge of the subject as it relates to my real estate deals in New York State, I would like to know how the process works in the DR. For example--upon the purchasing of title insurance-is one protected against ALL claims on the properrty?
Quality of the search? History of settling claims by the insurance carrier? In other words, I want to know all the differences between the DR and the U.S. (or NYS.)

Thanks in advance for qualified input.

See if you can find Stewart Title in NY. They are the one I know about in the DR and ask them directly.

Thanks Mr Guzman for the link regarding " General Info" on purchaing property in the D.R. I have a question that wasn't addressed. Which side of representation holds the original certificate of title if one purchased real estate using the lease option method?

I'm sorry disregard that comment. Strike that from the record! Must have been distracted watching that snowy BSU-BYU football game.

hahaha, if you lease it you don't own it until you buy it. Title is always held by the owner unless there are other arrangements.
