CHICAGO TITLE AND TRUST COMPANY

CELEBRATES ITS 160TH YEAR
Mayor Daley Recognizes Accomplishments of Chicagoland Company

 

Chicago, Ill. - (October 10, 2007) - For the employees of Chicago Title Insurance Company, 2007 isn't just another year.  This year, Chicago Title and Trust Co. and its employees are celebrating 160 years of protecting homes and businesses in both the Chicago metropolitan area and across the United States.  From its modest beginnings as the vision of a young Chicago law clerk, Chicago Title and Trust Co. has grown to become one of the most successful and respected title insurance companies in the world.

 

"We are proud and excited to celebrate our 160th anniversary in the City of Chicago," said Randy Quirk, Co-President, Chicago Title Insurance Company's parent company, Fidelity National Financial (NYSE:FNF). "For 160 years, we have been doing our best to protect your homes, your families, and to help you invest in your future. We will strive to continue serving our customers' title needs for many more years to come."

 

On behalf of the City of Chicago, I would like to recognize and congratulate Chicago Title and Trust Co. for 160 years of service to the residents of Chicago and beyond," said Mayor Richard M. Daley.  "As Mayor, I am proud to be able to say that I have a company like Chicago Title and Trust Co. headquartered in our city. Their storied history of protecting our most valuable investments-our homes and Chicago's greatest buildings-is priceless."

 

The long history of the company includes a rather noteworthy chapter from the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.  When many of Cook County's real estate records were consumed by the fire, employees of three quick-thinking abstract firms - Chase Brothers and Company, Shortall and Hoard, and Jones and Sellers - snatched their records from the blaze.  Soon their records were all housed together in the untouched western outskirts of the city, providing the real estate records on which to rebuild Chicago.  The abstract firms eventually became part of the Chicago Title family of companies

 

In 1920, the scope of Chicago Title and Trust's business extended beyond Cook County, Illinois where it started in 1847.  In the late 1940s, Chicago Title and Trust Co. moved to 111 West Washington Street and continued developing and expanding its extensive statewide organization. In the 1950s, Chicago Title and Trust Co. reached beyond its state borders to increase its business.  Over the next 50 years, Chicago Title and Trust Co. acquired several businesses and continued its growth as a prominent Chicago-based business.  In 2000, Chicago Title joined the Fidelity National Financial (NYSE:FNF) family of companies in a historic merger, creating the largest title insurer and provider of real-estate related products and services in the world.

 

"Remaining an industry leader for 160 years is a testament to Chicago Title's unwavering dedication to excellence and devotion to customers," said Quirk.  "Much has changed since Chicago Title and Trust Co. founding, but today the company continues to protect our customers' real estate with the same outstanding customer service, untarnished reputation for integrity and outstanding expertise we've offered since 1847."

Exceptional Customer Service

Customer Service.  It's a very easy word to toss around.  It's not easy, however, to provide exceptional, consistent customer service every time.  It is my strong belief that we can help Realtors grow their business by providing a high level of service to both the Realtor and their clients.  After all, we have the last touch with buyers and sellers, and I promise to make that contact a positive experience, and that reflects directly on the Realtor.  My clients love the fact that I begin the referral request process at the closing table.  What better way to thank your Realtor for finding your dream home than telling all your friends and family about your wonderful Realtor?  It's a question I ask at every closing.  Experience the difference at Chicago Title Val Vista/Baseline.

We are also your resource for our Social Media Workshops series!  Why sit through another rah-rah lecture about blogging, Facebok, Twitter, etc.?  Why not check out Paul Guenther's schedule and sign up?  These workshops are 2 hour, hands-on, BYOL (bring your own laptop) sessions designed to get you up and running.  We all know about roads and good intentions, and that's why Paul an I have developed these workshops as a way to prevent the inevitable failure to follow through after a seminar.  We've been there, done that ouselves.  I hope you will take a minute to check out our next series.

Testimonials

If you are serious about growing your business and maintaining a high level of professionalism I would highly recommend that you consider Chicago Title as a business partner. In this very turbulent real estate market, why risk losing business (or your reputation) because one of your business partners failed to perform. Now, more than ever, the business alliances your form are vital and that's why I recommend the Chicago Title office in Mesa. Bill Risser and staff do an outstanding job and will get the job done right and in a timely manner. Their office has saved me and my clients many a delay by accommodating early morning, after hour and weekend signings.    You have enough to manage in your real estate transaction but one of those items does not have to be title and escrow if you select the Bill Risser Team at Chicago Title in Mesa.

 I just wanted to share some thoughts about why I choose to do business with Chicago Title specifically Bill Risser & his staff:
On a personal note they have closed 6 real estate transactions for myself and/or my family with the utmost of professionalism & they are always willing to go the extra mile. Bill and his staff are hands on & willing to help with past or current needs. I recently needed a copy of some of the paper work from my last refinance in 2007. They arranged and provided me the information from archives within 48 hours when I said next week would have been great. Also they are willing to show up early or stay late when needs arise.

On a professional level for my clients, sellers or buyers, they do prompt title researchs and are always available to answer questions & provide details no matter how big or small. Clients always leave their signings feeling good about the transaction & fully understand the paperwork they just signed. I attend all of my in state signings & whenever I have questions or concerns about facts or figures, they're addressed & resolved promptly. All of my closings at this location have been completed smoothly & with great efficiency.

I also utilize there marketing assistance with listing kits, farming & most recently Listing Promoter. Bill & his staff are always willing to make themselves available (on short notice, I might add) when I have questions or need assistance with Chicago Title services like Chicago Agent, Listing Promoter setup, Flex MLS, Zip Forms or utilizing the website.

I believe that my business values & service have grown & will continue to grow thanks to partners like Bill Risser & his staff. They always keep me on my toes & I look forward to the continued growth of our businesses.

Regarding Bill Risser's Social Media Workshops:

 

Bill Risser is highly knowledgeable. A very comprehensive presentation. A simplified workshop covering what I thought was too complicated to understand in 2 hours. I definitely plan on attending the entire series of workshops. I highly recommend the courses! I have taken other workshops and Bill cuts to the chase, stays focused, and presents clearly.
