First American Title Launches Reimagined AgentNet® Technology Platform for Title Agents

SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 14, 2024--

First American Title Insurance Company, a leading provider of title insurance and settlement services and the largest subsidiary of First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF), today announced the launch of a reimagined AgentNet ®, a technology platform that delivers the products and services First American title agents value most in a single, easy-to-use platform. Building on the strengths of the existing AgentNet ® application, the new platform’s intuitive navigation allows title agents to easily access business-critical tools and reduces the complexity often associated with multiple systems.

“Our title agents wanted a simplified way to access our industry-leading tools that complements how they operate their businesses, so we completely reinvented AgentNet based on their feedback and our deep understanding of their needs," said Stephen Vincini, president of First American Title’s Agency Division. “AgentNet provides our title agents with the tools they find most valuable in a platform that is straightforward and simple to use, so they can deliver the certainty and trust needed to power seamless real estate transactions for their customers and grow their businesses.”

At launch, the AgentNet platform will initially feature three sets of products and services:

• AgentNet ® Services is the digital storefront for First American Title’s products and services that paves the way for seamless title transactions, with a time-saving order entry process, flexible report and remit options, and real-time order insights that will soon include proactive fraud alerts. AgentNet Services also includes solutions to support time-sensitive and complex transactions and instant access to back office services and title experts whenever they’re needed.
• AgentNet ® Knowledge is a one-stop destination for First American Title’s underwriting guidance, education, and CE/CLE training courses. More than just a repository of information, AgentNet Knowledge provides title agents with First American Title’s industry-leading underwriting expertise, from bulletins and forms to cybersecurity and fraud prevention resources, delivering a best-in-class experience that sets the foundation for AI capabilities.
• AgentNet ® Production, a brand new product, is a comprehensive, cloud-based title and escrow closing solution designed to simplify real estate closings from order origination through post-closing. Its intuitive navigation caters to all experience levels, from new hires to high performers. The web-based, work-from-anywhere software supports basic transactions and can be customized for more complex, multi-state title agency business models with more advanced functional needs, including supporting transactions involving other underwriters besides First American Title.

AgentNet Marketing and AgentNet Finance Coming Soon

Designed to continually evolve to meet the needs of title agents, the AgentNet platform will expand in the months ahead to include additional sets of products and services, including AgentNet Marketing, featuring access to a full library of ready-to-go online and printed materials, and AgentNet Finance, offering technology-forward financial products developed specifically for title and escrow agents, including banking relationships and trust accounting services that protect business operations and help meet compliance requirements.

Simple to navigate and use, the reimagined AgentNet is designed to be the only name title agents need to remember for industry-leading title technology. For more information about the AgentNet platform or product suite, contact a First American sales representative or visit FirstAm.com/AgentNet.
