ALTA Best Practices
The American Land Title Association (“ALTA”) created the Title Insurance and Settlement Company Best Practices Framework in 2013. It was designed to address industry concerns about consumer protection regulations as well as the vetting of title insurance agents by mortgage lenders as a result of Federal Government guidance.
ALTA’s Best Practices Framework outlines the policies and procedures that title insurance agents should exercise to protect lenders and consumers and in order to demonstrate their ability to comply with regulatory and industry standards.
Conestoga is committed to serving its agents as the industry implements its Best Practices. Our ALTA Best Practices Resource Center was developed specifically to assist Conestoga agents with implementing and documenting ALTA Best Practices policies and procedures.
Utilizing the information and tools available in the Resource Center, Conestoga agents gain an understanding of the various policies and procedures that need to be in place to put together their own customized Best Practices Manual.
