Mortgage professionals are ideal candidates for starting their own title company
Rising interest rates, declining origination volumes, and margin compression are genuine concerns facing almost every mortgage lender. The TitleEase Franchise System is an attractive and viable RESPA compliant alternative to a more traditional title company Joint Venture and is a terrific way for residential and commercial lenders to diversify their businesses while increasing margins on each transaction and enhancing customer relationships. With a TitleEase Franchise, lenders of all types now have a streamlined, effective, and most importantly, a turnkey system to start, own and operate their own title company.
As a lender, the TitleEase Franchise System will allow you to capture another vertical in the real estate value chain and organically grow your revenue to help combat margin compression and declining origination volumes in a rising rate environment. Further, in a declining interest-rate environment, or when third-party title vendor resources are scarce, the TitleEase Franchise System enables you to provide your customers quality and timely service. As a lender, you spend a lot of time, energy, and money on customer acquisition. Owning a title company franchise helps you manage all aspects of your customer’s experience by integrating and better controlling two essential elements of the mortgage transaction – title and closing.
