Title
Clear title, or we find out why.
We examine the full public record — deeds, mortgages, liens, judgments, easements, taxes — and surface the problems in week one, not the day before closing.

For agents, lenders, builders and attorneys
What happens after you send us a file
Five steps, each pinned to a time or a rule. You hear from us at every one — nobody on your side has to call and check.
Same day
A file number and your closer's name
Send the executed agreement, the addenda, and contacts for both sides. One closer opens the file, runs the curative, and sits at the signing — the same name on every email.
Week one
The curative list
The full public record: deeds, mortgages, liens, judgments, easements, taxes. A lien found the week of closing moves the date. Found in week one, it just gets cleared.
Four times
Search back. Curative cleared. Funds in escrow. Clear to close.
Pushed to you as each one happens, by the closer working the file. Nobody on your side has to call to find out where it stands.
Before signing
Final figures and the settlement statement
Escrow reconciled, every credit and debit accounted for, clear-to-close confirmed ahead of the table. Your client reads the number at home, not out loud in the room.
Every wire
Read aloud, never emailed
We give funding details by phone and verify them by phone, on a number we already have. Anyone who emails your buyer new instructions is not us.
Aureum House
A gallery attached to a title company
We show local artists, host openings, and open the room to clients, agents, and neighbors. It is the least likely thing to find inside a title company, and the part people remember.
Resources
Know what you're signing
The paperwork at a closing table is not written for the person signing it. These are the parts worth reading before you get there.
