Buying a home comes with a lot of paperwork, and terms like deed and title can be confusing—especially for first-time homebuyers. In this week’s Two-Minute Tuesday, I break down the difference between a deed and a title in plain English. Learn what each term means, why they matter, and how understanding them can help you make smarter real estate decisions.

You’ll learn:

- What a title is and why it’s the legal proof of ownership
- What a deed is and how it officially transfers property
- Real-world examples showing why both are important
- How understanding deeds and titles relates to title insurance

This video is designed to give first-time buyers and anyone looking to understand real estate a clear, practical explanation so you can feel confident in your next transaction.
