Spanish Title Deeds Insurance

Can anyone help with information as to where I can obtain a Spanish Title Deeds Insurance Policy.  Unfortunately I do not live on the Costa Del Sol but the problem I have seems to have more answers in that area than up here on the Costa Blanca North.  I am selling my property to an American buyer and we were about to make arrangements to conclude the sale at the Notary when he suddenly told me that, as is customary in the USA, he would expect me to arrange and pay for a Title Deeds Insurance Policy to be available on completion.  I had no idea what this was but my research has now revealed that it is an insurance which will indemnify the purchaser of a property against any defects in the title, problems with planning regulation infringements etc. etc. at any time up to 20 years in the future.  My lawyer has assured him that the title is good, the property being properly described and registered at the Land Registry and up to date with all taxes etc. but he now insists he will not proceed in the absence of this policy.  We understand that this insurance is available through a company called Caser at something like a 300€  one-off payment but the trouble is that I can find no-one offering this insurance anywhere in my area.  I have seen on the forum that someone previously posted complaining about being badgered to buy such a policy to protect their interests so I know that the policies must be available down there.  Can anyone give me any contact details of a possible source so that I can contact them to see if a policy can be arranged from a distance.  Many thanks in advance.

Saw this on another site.

Many thanks for the info.  Will try contacting them after the weekend.  A chink of light perhaps.

The 2 basic requirements are:
