We have a title-specific newsletter tracking this important part of the industry (we do the same thing for valuation) and there are a crazy number of new entrants into the space, mostly through acquisitions.   Just today we reported on Acrisure, a fast-growing insurance brokerage, buying Tempo Title, and the acquisition by real estate brokerage Compass of First Alliance Title. That follows fast after Radian launched its title insurance and closing services platform, titlegenius, in Arizona, California, Nevada, Ohio and Pennsylvania on Monday.   That's just this week!   Some other notable recent title news includes Covius buying Nationwide Title Clearing and Stewart Title's acquisition of Informative Research.   The lines between companies in real estate, mortgage, title and tech overlap more than ever as everyone tries to gain ground in the home-buying process. That's why we have designed our HW Annual event next week in Dallas around All Things Housing, to talk about the intersection of all these areas.   Join us for sessions on The Future of Title and A Crystal Ball for eClosings, as well as incredible sessions on cybersecurity, innovation in a purchase market and so much more.
