is a deed and title the same thing
Report Abuse. No, unfortunately a deed is a legal document that simply states that you own the property; that you 'bought' it. A 'Title' is something quite different. A title policy, the more correct way to clarify it, is an insurance policy issued customarily by a Title Company license by the state in which you live. What the title tells you is that the person who handed over the deed to the property had the clear and unequivocal right to sell it in the first place.
