You have to wonder what good title insurance is if the commitment and policy do not specifically include information found in the public record. If I had been the buyer's attorney, I would have insisted that the general exception be removed. That would force the title company to show each "easement or servitude" of record.
My guess is that this was a "short search" and they used the general exception because they didn't know if there were any such documents of record.
Sad, really... what does title insurance really cover these days?
