Rattikin Title Company

What Rattikin Title Company does

Rattikin Title Company is an independent, family-owned title insurance and escrow agency headquartered at 201 Main Street in downtown Fort Worth, Texas, founded in 1945 and now in its third generation of Rattikin family leadership. The firm provides residential and commercial title insurance policies, title searches, title commitments, escrow services, document recording, and closing coordination for real estate transactions across the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, with the Commercial Division reporting over $1 billion in transactions funded annually. Operations are delivered through eight physical branch locations spanning Tarrant and Parker Counties, supported by escrow officers, an affiliated in-house law firm (Rattikin & Rattikin, LLP), a research subsidiary (Real Estate Information Services / REIS), and a digitizing layer of online closing cost calculators and a secure ClosingSite-powered client portal that includes Remote Online Notarization capability.

The company generates revenue entirely on a per-transaction basis through regulated Texas title insurance premiums, escrow fees, guaranty fees, recording and document fees, and professional services including attorney document preparation. Its customer base is highly fragmented, spanning individual homebuyers and sellers, commercial investors, lenders, and a referral network of more than 40 real estate brokerages. Customer acquisition relies on a hybrid of referral relationships with real estate professionals, embedded calculator tools in brokerage workflows, TREC-approved continuing education events (Title Tuesday), and active participation in nine local chambers of commerce and multiple industry associations (ALTA, TLTA, Greater Fort Worth Association of Realtors, etc.). No external funding, M&A, or institutional ownership is disclosed; the firm operates as a privately held, relationship-driven title agency with a 15-year average employee tenure and 75+ years of continuous operating history.
