Brian McGroarty is the Vice President of Business Development for CoreTitle. Brian goes over what a title company does in a commercial closing and all the players involved in getting a deal to the finish line. He talks about some of the title industry’s more archaic processes and how the title industry could be impacted by blockchain technology. Brian discusses what title insurance is and some horror stories about picking the wrong title company. Fraud is an unfortunate part of the title industry, and Brian gives good advice on how to spot a “fake” title company that can take your money and vanish. He even tells us a story about a 4-hour closing when an unhelpful representative for a title company showed up in board shorts, flip-flops, and a Hawaiian shirt. He plugs a couple of books that have influenced him and talks about how everyone has the capability to be a networking “all-star,” and what they have to do to achieve that.
