Problems are Going to Crop up Everywhere

By Dave Wirsching & Francine D'Elia Wirsching

ADVERTISEMENTS
Things are tough out there. People will be trying anything and everything to make ends meet, which brings me to yesterday's e-mail solicitation (click to enlarge):
The author deserves an A+ for effort. It's a decent letter. While they don't appear to have a title license they appear to have some relevant experience. Looks can be deceiving.

What's utterly lacking is an understanding of the services they are allowed to perform. Preparing Contracts and Deeds in Pennsylvania is considered the practice of law and is prohibited.

I really can't blame them ? they probably don't know better. Over the last several years the primary requirement for a job in the title industry has been a heartbeat. Which would be OK, if anyone ever bothered with training. Based on my experience at the interview table, the little training that was delivered was based more on urban legend than on good practices, regulations, and the law.

There is a whole "generation" of people with title insuarance on their resumes. Most have several years experience, but have very little understanding or knowledge of the Title Insurance profession.

Imagine the consumer who purchases a defective "dollar deed" from the above author. Who's going to clean up that mess? Fun times ahead.
