National Title Examiner

National Title Examiner

Job Summary

We are seeking a skilled and resourceful National Title Examiner to join our close-knit mortgage brokerage team. In this role, you will lead our title research, analyze property histories, and help identify any potential risks or liens on properties across multiple states. Because we operate as a small, agile team, we are looking for a professional who enjoys having full ownership of their workflow and can confidently manage the title process from start to finish. If you thrive in a collaborative environment where your expertise is trusted and you can work independently, you will fit right in here.

• Problem Solving: Review title issues such as probate matters, tax liens, easements, or boundary questions, and help find clear paths to resolution.
• Abstract Review: Verify the accuracy and legal integrity of search reports from third-party vendors and field searchers.
• Commitment Generation: Prepare comprehensive Title Commitments, Title Reports, and Pro-Forma policies outlining explicit requirements and exceptions.
• Team Collaboration: Partner directly with our internal Loan Originators and Processors to clear title conditions smoothly before closing.

Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum of 5+ years of dedicated title examination experience, with a proven track record handling national or multi-state files.
• Broker Mindset: Demonstrated ability to work independently, manage your own pipeline, and solve problems comfortably in a boutique business setting.
• Technical Mastery: Deep proficiency with national title platforms (e.g., DataTrace, DataTree, TitleWave) and local county online recorder portals.
• Detail-Oriented: Strong ability to interpret legal descriptions, maps, surveys, and property documents.
