TitleVest voted "Best Title Agency" by New York Law Journal

Manhattan-based TitleVest, one of the nation's leading providers of title insurance and related real estate services covering all 50 states, was voted "Best Title Agency" in the New York Law Journal's 2013 Reader Rankings. TitleVest's "Best Title Agency" recognition is a testament to its client-centric focus and comes during a period of record growth for the company. Since being named one of the nation's fastest-growing private companies by Inc. magazine in 2010, TitleVest's revenues have grown in excess of 40% per year for each of the past three years. TitleVest's experienced team of 150+ title professionals processes in excess of 50,000 orders per year out of its Wall Street corporate headquarters, which was recently expanded to over 35,000 square feet. "With nearly 1,000 New York-based title agencies competing for business, we are extremely proud to be recognized as the best," said Bill Baron, TitleVest's CEO and president. "Our phenomenal growth and #1 ranking are a direct result of our relentless dedication to outstanding client service." In addition to its commitment to service excellence, TitleVest is widely regarded as the industry's most technologically advanced title company. TitleVest's proprietary technology includes ACRISasap (for which TitleVest was awarded a U.S. Patent) and Interactive Online Report, which streamlines the title review and closing process. "Looking ahead, we are in the process of implementing a number of new initiatives that we are confident will lead to continued growth while further enhancing the level of service we are able to offer our clients," said Baron.
