Title insurance complaints

152 complaints against 39 title insurers, from state insurance department records. The regulator found the company at fault in 9.2% of them.

These companies are not graded — here is why

Every A–F grade on this site divides a company's complaints by how much business it writes, so a giant and a small carrier can be compared honestly. Regulators publish that denominator for auto, home, health and life cover — but not for title insurance. Ranking these companies by complaint count alone would rank them by size, which is exactly what the complaint index exists to avoid.

What the records do support is the outcome: of the complaints filed against a company, how often the department upheld them. That needs no denominator, and it is the column to read below.

How often each title insurer was found at fault

Highest first. Only companies with at least 12 complaints on record appear here — below that a percentage is noise. Rates are pulled toward the title market average so a company with a dozen complaints cannot outrank one with two hundred.

1 Stewart Title Guaranty Company Texas 17 12% 2 of 17 Loss/Claim Disputes; Title Defects
