A title commitment is a commitment by a title company or agency to issue a title policy in the future based upon a set of terms including the "Exceptions" and "Requirements" for issuance.  The Exceptions are those items that will not be insured and the Requirements are those items that must be addressed prior to a policy being issued.  In some instances additional insurance in the form of an endorsement may be purchased to remove or insure over certain Exceptions.

A customer will use a title commitment typically when entering into a real estate transaction where a title policy is desired after closing.

A title commitment is typically ordered at the beginning of a real estate transaction.  The search in the beginning of a real estate transaction is essential as it will reveal potential issues and allow time and the opportunity to clear up the issues prior to closing, if necessary, allowing for the issuance of a title policy without exceptions and for the purchaser to receive the property with clear title.
