Underwriter Information
Because an owner's or mortgagee's title policy is only as reliable as the
underwriter's claims paying ability, it is important to work with a reputable
title insurance agent backed by sound underwriting principles. Land Title
Guarantee Company has the unique ability to issue title insurance policies
through three highly rated underwriters:
- Land Title is an agent for Old Republic National Title
Insurance Company. Old Republic (formerly known as Minnesota
Title) has been underwriting policies for Land Title since 1967. Old
Republic was the first underwriter to receive an A+ rating for claims
paying ability by Standard and Poor's.
- Land Title also has the ability to write title insurance policies with
First American Title Insurance Company as an underwrtier. First American Title Insurance Company traces its history to 1889 and is the largest subsidiary of First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF). Land Title underwrites most of its metro Denver commercial transactions through First American Title.
- Land Title has also formed its own underwriting company, Land
Title Insurance Corporation which enjoys the highest rating (A+
and A) from the two leading industry rating agencies for its financial
stability. The majority of Land Title's metro Denver lender and residential
title insurance policies are underwritten by LTIC.
