Hogan Land Title Company

What Hogan Land Title Company does

Hogan Land Title Company, Inc is a privately held title insurance and escrow services agency founded in 1964 (originally as Thieme-Hunt Abstract) and headquartered in Springfield, Missouri. The company issues title insurance policies and provides escrow closing services for residential and commercial real estate transactions, acting as a neutral third-party intermediary that holds funds and documents until closing conditions are met. Hogan also offers construction loan disbursement services with lien waiver management, 1031 tax-deferred exchange facilitation, property profile/title search reports, and online tools for earnest money deposits and fee calculation.

The company's core technological asset is its historic Title Plant — more than 40 physical title record books from the early 1900s, built atop property records dating to the 1830s, continuously maintained and updated, and used for every title search conducted across its four-county Southwest Missouri service area (Greene, Christian, Stone, and Taney). The company layers this historic data infrastructure with unspecified modern technology to produce property history reports and underwrite title. Hogan is licensed to issue title insurance in Missouri and maintains underwriting relationships with the three largest national title insurers — Chicago Title, First American, and Fidelity National Title.

Hogan operates five physical offices (three in Springfield, one in Branson, one in Branson West) and generates revenue on a transaction-fee basis across title insurance premiums, escrow closing fees, construction disbursement professional service fees, 1031 exchange facilitation, and title search/profile reports. Its customer base spans individual home buyers and sellers (long-tail), real estate agents and brokers (SMB), and lenders and financial institutions (enterprise counterparties for lender's policies and construction loan administration). In February 2026, the company consolidated its Branson and Branson West operations under the unified Hogan TRL sub-brand while keeping both offices open. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional or PE ownership and no publicly available revenue figures.
