Title Curative - Consumer Title

Summary

The Title Curative independently manages consumer title curative files, analyzes title defects and clearance documentation, and helps move files toward closing. You will apply title underwriting standards and insurer guidelines, work with underwriters to resolve issues, and keep internal and external customers informed of file status and closing requirements.

This role supports an active pipeline of 65–75 files per person. Success requires organized file ownership, sound judgment, accurate documentation, and the ability to manage competing requests while recognizing when to seek a second opinion.

Essential duties and responsibilities

• Review files and identify title defects, required clearance evidence, and issues requiring escalation.
• Analyze clearance documentation, including divorce documents, probate, trusts, powers of attorney, and corporate entity documents.
• Independently manage an assigned pipeline, track next actions and deadlines, and advance or clear files with accurate documentation and complete notes.
• Communicate and collaborate with underwriters; seek a second opinion or approval when a file requires additional review.
• Prepare deeds, affidavits, correction documents, state-specific deed transmittal forms, title commitments, and commitment markups.
• Order deeds from title partners and vendors where applicable, and review vendor-prepared deeds for accuracy.
• Review and approve surveys and underwrite applicable endorsements in accordance with insurer guidelines and applicable approval requirements.
• Follow client requirements for timelines, coverage, and documentation.
• Communicate what must be paid, signed, and recorded at closing.
• Maintain clear file notes and provide timely updates to internal and external customers, including unresolved requirements, progress, and next steps.
• Prioritize file work, chat messages, phone calls, email, and urgent closing escalations without losing track of follow-up commitments.
• Learn AI-enabled workflows as they are introduced and double-check generated requirements and answers against source documents and applicable guidance.
