From wikipedia (and standard practice here)

A title search is an action taken prior to the sale of real property to determine whether there are any liens or other encumbrances on the property which might prevent or delay the sale of the property.

Generally, the search is performed to determine if;
1) the seller has a saleable interest in the property; and
2) any liens exist on the property which need to be paid off at closing (mortgages, back taxes, mechanic's liens, or other assessments). A title report also shows any easements, or recorded legal rights to the property or portions of the property. For example, a previous owner may have legally given a neighbor the right to share the driveway, or the city may have a right to strips of the property for putting power or communication lines or water or sewer pipes

In the USA, the buyer of a property will usually purchase title insurance, which protects the buyer from any title problems that may arise after sale (such as liens that were missed during the search).

A title search is also performed when an owner of a certain real property wishes to mortgage his property and the bank requires him to insure their transaction.
