Passport Title is Prepared to Serve

March 16, 2020

A MESSAGE FROM OUR LEADERSHIP

With COVID-19 (coronavirus) filling the news and extreme actions being taking to control the pandemic in our country, Passport Title remains strong and well-prepared to continue to serve our clients and their customers effectively.

Business Continuity

The fact that Passport Title has a long-established competency in remote working and 70% of our team work from home is an advantage. Our risk of infection is lower and our operations continue to run with minimal disruption.

In addition, we have a solid business continuity program that includes flexible infrastructure and functional support to ensure we continue to fulfill our commitments to safe, sound and secure business practices.

We Continue to Serve

During this time of difficulty for many people, Passport Title is focused on providing exceptional service to our clients and their customers. We are nimble and flexible, placing us in a position to operate seamlessly, while continually adapting to a rapidly changing environment:

We are closely monitoring the response of courthouses in our service footprint for partial and full closings and the status of electronic recording services. We will adjust our operations accordingly.

We established new CDC protocols for our settlement officers and are using alternate means for closings, as appropriate.

Moving Forward

We are prepared to move our business forward for our employees, our clients and their customers during and after this crisis. We have a dedicated team of title professionals across seven states and the District of Columbia who serve the industry with technical expertise and integrity. We have strong momentum in new business, new clients and new markets. We have financial strength.
