Evergreen Land Title Co

What Evergreen Land Title Co does

Evergreen Land Title Co is a privately held, locally owned title insurance and escrow services agency founded in 1981 and headquartered in Eugene, Oregon. The company operates three physical locations across Eugene (Escrow Office and Title Office) and Springfield, serving real estate buyers, sellers, lenders, mortgage brokers, builders, and REO (bank-owned) property sellers in Lane County, Oregon. Its core offerings are owner's and lender's title insurance underwritten by Stewart Title of Oregon, full-service escrow closing for residential and commercial transactions, refinances, sale-by-owner transactions, and IRC Section 1031 tax-deferred exchanges conducted in partnership with Asset Preservation, Inc. Additional services include REO closings, approved-builder programs with discounted escrow fees, and ancillary products such as property comps, mailing labels, and listing kits.

The business runs on a transaction-based revenue model: one-time title insurance premiums paid at closing, escrow fees scaled to transaction price (often split between buyer and seller), and pass-through recording and service fees. Customer-facing technology includes a website with online calculators (Title Quote, Loan Estimate, Buyer Cost Sheet, Seller Net Sheet), self-serve ordering forms for purchase and refinance transactions, and integration with Title Pro 247 for title production and Contract Collections for document management. The firm employs between 11 and 50 people and is co-owned by Dana Hinshaw (Owner/President/Escrow Officer) and Ken Boyst, each becoming co-owners in 2018.

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• Stewart Title of Oregon: Stewart Title is Evergreen's underwriter and one of the largest national title insurance underwriters, offering title and escrow services across the U.S. While Evergreen is a downstream agent, Stewart competes in the same Lane County title and escrow market and represents the most strategically entangled peer.
• First American Title Insurance Company: First American is one of the largest national title insurers and escrow providers, operating direct and agency operations across the U.S. It directly competes with Evergreen in residential and commercial title insurance and escrow services in Lane County.
• Fidelity National Title: Fidelity National Title, part of FNF, is the largest U.S. title insurance underwriter and operates a national agency network. Its national scale, technology investments, and lender relationships make it a direct competitive threat to Evergreen in Lane County.
• Old Republic Title: Old Republic Title is a major national title underwriter with both direct operations and independent agency affiliates. It competes with Evergreen for refinance, purchase, and commercial title orders in the Pacific Northwest market.
• WFG National Title Insurance Company: WFG National Title is a rapidly growing national title underwriter known for its independent agent model. It competes for title orders in Oregon and presents an attractive alternative agency affiliation for lenders and realtors in Lane County.
• North American Title Company: North American Title (now part of daughter entities under FNF) operates a national title insurance and escrow agency network. It competes with Evergreen for lender and real estate agent title orders across the Pacific Northwest.

Direct peers

• Ticor Title Company of Oregon: Ticor Title is a Pacific Northwest-focused title and escrow underwriter operating across Oregon and Washington. It directly competes with Evergreen in Lane County and is one of the other major independent-affiliated title brands in the region.

Regional players

• TitleOne (Idaho/Oregon regional title company): TitleOne is a regional title and escrow provider operating primarily in Idaho with growing Pacific Northwest reach. While not yet dominant in Lane County, its expansion strategy and independent agency model make it a relevant emerging peer for Evergreen.
