# First American Title (Commercial)

National commercial title underwriting.

One of the largest US title insurers, whose commercial division underwrites title insurance and runs escrow and settlement for property transactions. Its page claims it can service nearly any commercial transaction through its national network, including in states without a physical First American office, and cites fifty-plus years in commercial, a thousand-plus commercial team members, and a hundred thousand transactions closed since 2023.

## At a Glance

The national title name a lender will not question; the local office you draw decides the experience.

## What It Costs

Title premiums are state-filed rates, so the site publishes no national pricing (read Aug 2026). Expect the premium to be quoted by the local office handling your closing, off the filed schedule for that state.

## Best For

A deal that includes real estate, where the lender requires title insurance and you would rather name a national underwriter than accept whichever agency the seller's side suggests. Also relevant for escrow and settlement when the property is the deal's anchor asset.

## Pros and Cons

- Pro: National network the vendor itself stands behind, including states where it has no office
- Pro: Scale on its own page: 50+ years in commercial, 1,000+ commercial team members, 100K+ transactions closed since 2023
- Pro: End-to-end digital transaction platform (ClarityFirst) and explicit wire-fraud prevention services, which matter in the week funds move
- Con: You are routed to a local office, so service quality is office-specific even under the national brand
- Con: State-filed premiums mean no price shopping on the site; the rate is the rate for your state

## What Searchers Say

Claims on the commercial division's own page (Aug 2026): 50+ years in the commercial industry, 1,000+ commercial team members, 100K+ transactions closed since 2023.
