Title Agencies Continue to Focus on Driving Business Growth

1. Title Agencies Continue to Focus on Driving Business Growth Annual conferences such as ALTA One are usually great to network with Title agents across the industry and to get to know what matters to them. It is nice to understand business trends and key focus areas across title agencies. This year, some of my colleagues were at ALTA One and it was interesting and insightful to interact with title agents and understand their key focus areas. While there were varied opinions on topics like managing the brand’s online presence, hiring the right talent, managing fraud & privacy, technology investments, a lot of title agents confirmed continued focus on business growth & renewed technological investments as a priority area. Driving Business Growth Based on discussions with some of the experts we met, it is clear that business growth is possible, only if you cultivate a culture of innovation in your company, along with investing in the training & growth of your people. In today’s world, we need to add one more key ingredient to this combination, and that is, leveraging and investing in the right technology. The combination of it all can ensure a path of optimal growth. In today’s fluctuating market and changing regulations, it has become imperative for title agents to stay updated to be on top of their game all the time. Having the right knowledge, domain experience, and automation with newer technologies gives you a competitive edge. While it’s impossible to invest in all growth aspects at one time, many senior title executives we met were looking to partner with service providers who have most of these items covered in their offerings menu.

2. Technology Trends of today While we witness a continuous technology churn, one thing to be sure of is that technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and RPA are here to stay. There are significant developments and investments in these technologies, as title agents and lenders, alike are demanding more personalized digital experiences. Lenders are investing in these technologies to deliver an improved digital experience to borrowers and they expect title agents, their service providers, to also follow the same path. In the future, title agencies can expect a lot more competition not just from other local or national title companies but also from technologically next-gen companies from all over the world, who have started providing a fully digital title process. Title companies that are aware of market conditions are looking to quickly partner with such tech firms who can give them this competitive advantage. This will ensure that they will be able to leverage these newer technologies sooner and maintain their competitive edge. Working with such service providers who have invested in the right technology will help title companies attract more customers, streamline operations, increase their market share and reduce costs.
