In Gleim it states that title insurance only protects you from recorded liens.

I thought title insurance was meant to protect you from unrecorded liens. Why else would one get it? If the title insurance company conducts a public record search for recorded liens and comes up dry, what are they insuring? There is nothing to insure.

However, if a prop is purchased by a BFP that is later revealed to have a lien on it, would the title insurance company then have to pay the claim?

I don't get it. :(
