Corporate Culture
At Investors Title Company, we believe that by investing in the success of our associates, we are investing in our company’s success, as well. It’s a win-win situation that places our employees and our organization on parallel paths of achievement. The end results are challenging and rewarding careers for our associates and profitability and growth for our company.
How do we help our associates succeed? First, we provide an environment that’s conducive to success—down-to-earth, innovative and entrepreneurial. We sustain an atmosphere that’s professional, yet friendly and casual. We encourage our associates to communicate freely, take initiative, and accept responsibility.
As a results-oriented and project-driven organization, we believe that teamwork is a key component to the achievement of our goals. Our hands-on, collaborative management style encourages people to interact, creating a synergy of success.
Our management team has an open-door policy because we want our employees to be actively engaged in our business. We welcome our associates’ recommendations and invite them to share their ideas and concerns. In fact, our Cost Reduction Committee relies on the recommendations of employees for their cost-savings ideas.
We also provide our people with the technology they need to succeed, including the ability to work from remote locations. We’ve also developed a Web-based title insurance request service called EFLITE that improves our efficiency. In addition, we’ve invested considerable time and money in enhancing our financial reporting and information systems.
The quality of our people, their loyalty to the Company, and their collaborative spirit are all factors that make Investors a special place to work. That’s why we have recruited—and will continue to recruit—professionals who are intelligent, hard-working, innovative team players. To be considered for employment, candidates must also exhibit proficiency, a desire to succeed, and willingness to be held accountable.
Although a public company with more than 300 employees, Investors Title is primarily run by family who cares about its people and promotes a close-knit atmosphere. Here, everyone’s ideas are not only heard but are also frequently implemented. That’s why the company is able to retain some of the best people in the title industry. While many companies in insurance, mortgage, banking and real estate law are seen as conservative, Investors is always exploring exciting and innovative ways to do business.
Training/Development
To ensure that our employees perform at peak proficiency, we provide excellent on-the-job training across all functions and offer ongoing opportunity for learning through seminars and continuing education classes. Moreover, our employees have the opportunity to provide training to others. For example, our 1031 Exchange Group regularly offers training to attorneys and paralegals, while our Underwriting Support Group offers training to residential and commercial underwriters.
In addition to our educational and training opportunities, we promote from within, whenever and wherever possible. Our online job posting program enables internal and external candidates to apply for positions that will advance their skills and enhance career satisfaction.

Work/Life Quality
At Investors Title Company, we appreciate the importance of work/life balance and therefore encourage both personal and professional development. We provide generous paid-time-off programs. We feel that it is vital for our associates to have the time and resources to spend with their families and friends relaxing, pursuing their interests, and enjoying a variety of recreational and entertainment activities. The opportunity to unwind and re-energize enables our employees to perform better and focus more clearly.
The Company is also pleased to provide the opportunity for our associates to participate in social and philanthropic activities. Tailgating parties at our Corporate Office are popular marketing events in the fall during college football season. Our Home Office also sponsors annual holiday events, a Health Fair, and Lunch ‘n Learns covering such topics as healthy cooking, self defense, stress management, and dressing for success. In addition, the Company sponsors many social and educational events in its national markets.
In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, we collected donations company-wide and provided matching funds for survivors. We’ve also collected canned food to donate to the local food bank, donated supplies to a local animal shelter, and supported other good causes. Informally, collections and donations are made to employees who experience a catastrophe, such as a home fire.
Company employees receive service awards at five-year intervals, which increase monetarily with each successive award. Employees also enjoy a holiday gift “thank you” check, and our home office celebrates monthly birthdays. All of our offices also have the latitude to recognize employees as they deem appropriate.
As members of our team, our associates enjoy a genuine sense of belonging because their ideas and achievements are appreciated and they are treated with professional respect and personal regard.
Why Investors Title?
“Since joining Investors Title in October 1997 as an office manager, I have enjoyed a very challenging and aggressive professional growth path. Coming from a real estate law firm, I felt that I could contribute to the leadership of the Company and share in the commitment Investors makes each day to our partners in real estate. I've seen dramatic changes in the title industry over the past 10 years, but one thing that has remained the same is Investors’ commitment to the real estate community. It has been meaningful to develop strong relationships with the Investors team of professionals and share in the dedication to the real estate community by providing innovative solutions and superior service.”
Kim, Senior Vice President
“It is great to come to work every day and know that you will be surrounded by the best professionals in our industry. The positive and committed atmosphere is contagious and makes working at Investors Title a great fit for me.”
