Title agents will be able to use a
Web-based search engine that taps into public and private data sources for
title searches as the result of PropertyInfo Corp.'s acquisition of a
proprietary technology already in use at the county government level.
PropertyInfo announced
Thursday that it plans to offer Advanced Title Search, a title search
application developed by CST Title Abstractors LLC, to clients through its real
estate information portal, PropertyInfo.com.
Advanced Title Search will provide
title agents a Web-based, automated search tool that creates a consolidated
property Title Search Report (TSR) from various public and private databases
using rules-based search analysis technology.
The electronic title search package
includes a data file that's importable to existing title order management
systems, such as Stewart Title's AIM application or Fidelity National
Financial's SoftPro. PropertyInfo is a subsidiary of Stewart Information
Services Corp.
PropertyInfo
President and Chief Executive Officer Pat Vaden said Advanced Title Search fits
in well with the company's strategy to reduce title-search costs and fully
integrate the title-search process.
