Updated: Feb 17

Sales in the real estate industry are going strong with no sign of slowing down. That means many buyers and sellers are going to need the help of a title company to complete their transactions. 


Before you see the opportunity and jump headfirst into opening your own title company, consider the benefits of a title company franchise.


Why Open a Franchise? 

Many ambitious people set off on their own to open a title business. Yet, few truly understand all of the tasks that a title company handles. This can lead to serious challenges when creating the basic framework to get the business off the ground — including the operational processes that are needed to keep it successfully going. 


What’s more, so much of what a title company does depends on the adherence to state and federal regulatory requirements. Any deviation from these can be detrimental to your business. 


However, all of these struggles and more are afterthoughts when it comes to investing in a title insurance franchise. Here’s why. 


  • Simple to get started. With a franchise, you simplify starting a title company as all the groundwork and logistics have been put in place for you. 


  • The right tools. You will be given all the tools you will need to not only start but operate your title company, too. 


  • Cost savings. It takes a lot of money to start a business from scratch. When you invest in a franchise, all the baseline work has been done for you, making it a cost-effective decision. 


  • A support team. It can be tough when you are just starting a new venture without anyone to offer their support. Buying a franchise comes with a crew that you can always reach out to as they will be right with you throughout the process. 


  • Reduced stress. Although it should go without saying, it is a definite benefit and should be mentioned — not having to build a title company from the ground up can significantly reduce the levels of stress involved. 


Key Considerations 

If you do not already have a business in place, investing in a title insurance franchise seems like the ideal solution. After all, it can provide you with everything you need all wrapped up in a nice, neat package. The problem is that you cannot choose just any franchise. You want to look for a franchise that can check all the boxes of your key considerations, such as:


Continued Support

Buying a franchise comes with many learning opportunities. And this is not something you want to do on your own — especially since you will have to handle licensing, underwriter agreements, filling support roles, and so forth. 


Be sure that your franchise provides you with access to support, both technical and operational. 


Technology

In today’s world, technology is a must. Therefore when investing in a franchise, it is important to ensure that it comes equipped with all the advanced tools you will need to provide streamlined services for your clients. 


Automation tools increase productivity and help mitigate risk. Files can be pushed through the many stages of the title process without dealing with unwanted bottlenecks. 


The more efficient your title company, the more files you can work — and the greater the profits.


Regulatory Compliance

As mentioned above, many aspects of the title industry are regulated at both the national and the state level. If you are purchasing a franchise that is ready to take flight, you want to make sure that every legal detail has been addressed by the appropriate professionals. 


In addition, you need a system in place to monitor changes to regulations so that you remain in compliance and free from legal hot water at all times.
