Disclosures on a residential title commitment are notices about items that could affect who owns the land or how it can be used. Noting a severed mineral estate is important because it warns that mineral rights may be owned by someone else and could impact surface use, access, or development. In Colorado, mineral rights are often severed from the surface, so this disclosure commonly appears to alert buyers to a potential encumbrance that isn’t tied to the surface title alone.

The other statements describe liability language, tax certificates, or tax district notices, which aren’t typically presented as standard disclosures on a residential title commitment. Hence, the severed mineral estate notification is the disclosure that may appear.
