Westcor Land Title

Westcor Land Title Insurance Company is a title insurance underwriter founded by title agents and focused on the independent agent channel. It describes itself as the largest independent underwriter in the nation, and its parent company is Ardán, a group of real estate closing businesses; The Orogen Group is an investor in the platform.

What an agent gets from Westcor is underwriting support plus the operational pieces around it: nationwide underwriters reachable without a phone queue, an audit and compliance team, claims handling, and free CE and CLE classes for agents and their clients. Westcor Agency Services adds back-office fulfillment, including title search and production, disbursement solutions, and policy typing, so an agent can take on volume or expand into another state without hiring for it. Some fulfillment work is non-licensed, letting the agent keep the client relationship while Westcor handles production; availability varies by area and transaction type.

The company publishes a policyholder surplus of $160 million, an AM Best financial strength rating of A- (Excellent) with a long-term issuer credit rating of A-, and a Demotech rating, and says it holds one of the lowest claims ratios in the industry.

Headquarters is at 875 Concourse Parkway South, Maitland, Florida, with administrative and regional offices listed in more than a dozen states. Premiums follow state rate filings.
