Yes, it is possible that a title dispute could delay the closing on your home. In fact if there is not a clear title transfer, your closing attorney needs to consult with you as soon as possible. The sellers title insurance carrier and the attorneys of record will probably get together to resolve the title problem. If it has something to do with family members of the seller then it may take some time to resolve. If the title problem exists due to some financial problem for the seller it is best to follow the guidance of your closing attorney.
