Not to the documents, but to the "guarantee" afforded by those documents.
When you purchase a home you purchase title insurance to go along with your
title deed. Both documents in effect say that the home or possession is
rightfully and lawfully yours, thus hUPOSTASIS. You already possess the
home, the documents just record that fact.
