Secured Title of Texas

What Secured Title of Texas does

Secured Title of Texas is a Plano, Texas-based title insurance and escrow agency operating since 2012 as a private LLC under the TM Holdings, Inc. network of independent title agencies. The company delivers residential, commercial, and farm-and-ranch title and closing services across Texas, supported by four physical branches in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex (Plano headquarters, Frisco, Flower Mound, and Tioga) and remote online notary capability. Core service lines include title insurance and escrow for residential transactions, complex commercial closings (covering industrial, medical, multifamily, retail, farm & ranch, and undeveloped land with loan sizes up to $50M), 1031 tax-deferred exchanges delivered through a sister-company partnership with Safe Harbour Exchange, builder-account services for large and custom home builders, and lender services for refinance and purchase mortgage workflows.

The underlying technology stack is conventional for the title industry rather than proprietary: the company offers the SecuredAgentTX ONE (PalmAgent) mobile application for real estate professionals, the Zoccam platform for instant digital earnest money delivery, an online Rate Calculator for closing-cost estimation, and outsourced cybersecurity infrastructure (EDR, MDR, DNS filtering, 24x7 SOC monitoring via Premier One) targeting wire-fraud prevention. No proprietary AI/ML models, APIs, or SDKs are disclosed; technology differentiation is positioned around ease-of-use and security rather than algorithmic innovation. Customer-facing content assets include a multi-year podcast series (The Insiders 2021–2024, Real Estate Insights 2025–2026) and a Continuing Education catalog spanning residential, commercial, legal, and farm-and-ranch courses for licensed Texas real estate professionals.

The revenue model is entirely transaction-based — title insurance premiums and escrow/closing fees tied to property value and transaction type — with no disclosed subscription or recurring revenue. Customer segments span residential buyers/sellers (SMB/consumer), commercial investors (mid-market), lenders, builders, and farm-and-ranch clients; all visible testimonials are from individual consumers. The go-to-market is relationship-driven: referrals from real estate agents and brokers, supported by a network of six title insurance underwriters (Old Republic, Chicago Title, Fidelity National, WFG, First National, Agents National) and several law-firm partnerships. The company is family-owned, employs 11–50 people, and operates only within Texas despite its parent's seven-state footprint.
