Refinance
Refinancing your mortgage is a smart way to lower your interest rate, adjust loan terms, or access equity — and at RSI Title, we make sure the process is seamless from start to finish. As your closing and escrow agent, we coordinate with your lender to manage all requirements, verify your property’s title history, and clear any issues so your new loan can be recorded without delay.
Our refinance services include a full title search, issuance of lender’s title insurance, preparation of settlement and payoff statements, collection and secure disbursement of funds, and recording of the new mortgage with the appropriate county office. We also ensure your old mortgage is properly paid off and released, eliminating future complications.
With RSI Title, you can expect clear communication, secure handling of your documents and funds, and flexible closing options that fit your schedule. Whether you’re refinancing to save money or restructure your loan, our experienced team provides the guidance and efficiency you need to complete your refinance with confidence.

After settlement is complete and all funds are confirmed, we submit the deed and deed of trust to the county land records office — typically within 1–3 business days. Due to some county processing backlogs, the official recording date on the documents may be a few days after your closing date. Your title insurance coverage begins on your closing date regardless.
No. Most title companies, including RSI Title, require a wire transfer or certified/cashier’s check for amounts over a small threshold (usually $500–$1,000). Personal checks are not accepted for down payments or large closing costs because they can be returned after the transaction closes. Contact us for exact wiring instructions well before your closing date.
RSI Title acts as a neutral third party that coordinates the entire closing. We conduct the title search, prepare all documents, collect and disburse funds (including your down payment and lender proceeds), issue title insurance, and record the deed after closing. We make sure money and property legally change hands at the same moment.
In Maryland and DC, a licensed title company can conduct settlement without a separate attorney. In Virginia, an attorney must certify title, but a title company still handles the closing process. RSI Title works with licensed attorneys as part of our standard process in Virginia. If you’d prefer to have your own attorney present, you’re always welcome to bring one.
Yes, in many cases. We offer remote online notarization (RON) and mobile notary options for qualifying transactions. This depends on your lender’s requirements and the type of transaction. Contact our office early in the process if you anticipate needing a remote closing, so we can confirm eligibility and make arrangements.
