WFG National Title to Issue Title Insurance in Michigan

Jul 09, 2013

WFG National Title Insurance Company has been granted the right to issue title insurance in the state of Michigan, increasing the number of jurisdictions in which the WFG family of underwriters is authorized to issue title insurance to 43. WFG National Title is a full-service provider of title insurance and real estate settlement services for commercial and residential transactions nationwide. Michigan title agents working with WFG National Title will be a part of the company’s Midwest region, overseen by Charles Cain, senior vice president, Agency, Midwest Region. “Michigan is one of the industry’s largest title markets, and we intend to hit the ground running there,” Cain said. “Although WFG National Title may be new to Michigan, our agency support team is not. The members of our team have all worked in that market during previous stints with other underwriters, and we are confident that agencies in Michigan will welcome our agent-focused approach.”
