Team Title Services Chief Executive Web Raulston says his business is aimed at trying to free up Realtors to sell rather than tying them up in an office while closing on a sale.
“Leave everything up to us,” says Raulston about his business that began late last year and focuses on supporting real estate buyers and sellers.
Team Title now employs about 36 people and expects to hit up to 50 by the end of this year.
Raulston, the 34-year-old company owner and attorney who has 10 years in the title business, says he started the company last year with the intent of bringing more technology into the title business. In his past work with another company, he saw a pattern where industry business practices were “very antiquated.”
Also, Raulston says, the industry has an aging workforce and ownership base. He says that the Great Recession of 2008 which hit hard the real estate sector prompted younger people to leave the title industry for greener pastures.
