Longhorn Title

What Longhorn Title does

Longhorn Title, now operating under the brand name Texan Title, is a privately held, family-owned title insurance and escrow agency serving Williamson County, Texas from two physical branches in Georgetown (headquarters, 3613 Williams Dr. #204) and Taylor (1902 Old Granger Road). Founded in 1972 on the Georgetown Square, the firm issues Texas-regulated owner's and lender's title insurance policies and provides escrow, settlement, and title search/examination services for residential real estate transactions, with each customer assigned a dedicated Escrow Officer from contract receipt through closing.

The company generates revenue from four transaction-based streams: Texas-regulated title insurance premiums (set by the Texas Department of Insurance and non-discountable), settlement/closing fees, in-house title search and examination, and escrow officer/assistant services. Its technology stack is entirely third-party: a TitleTap-powered website with embedded Wistia educational videos, an online Order Title intake form, and a branded Net Sheet and Title Premium calculator app hosted on titlepremiumcalculator.com. All title work is performed in-house by ~15 staff with 100+ years of combined local experience.

Go-to-market is local and relationship-driven: direct walk-in and phone orders at the two branches, an online Order Title form, inbound referrals from Williamson County Realtors, lenders, and homebuilders, and a free branded calculator app that lets real estate agents generate net sheets and submit title orders in one click. Marketing is primarily educational content (a 21-page blog and Wistia video library covering home buying, mortgages, TRID, and escrow), supplemented by Facebook and Twitter presence and third-party remarketing. The firm is a Texas Land Title Association member and operates under Texas Department of Insurance oversight, with no disclosed institutional investors, M&A activity, or capital-raising events.

Others

• TitleTap: Technology vendor that powers Longhorn Title's website, content, calculators, and lead forms. Included as an ecosystem peer because it is the firm's core digital infrastructure and a representative of the broader title-tech vendor layer that small agencies depend on.

Direct peers

• Capital Title of Texas: Texas-based title and escrow company with multiple branches in the Austin metro and central Texas. Directly comparable in product set, target market (residential real estate buyers/sellers/agents), and mid-sized local-agent operating model that competes for Williamson County referrals.
• Independence Title: Texas-focused independent title agent with comparable service model (title insurance, escrow, closings) and similar relationship-driven GTM. Closest direct competitor in terms of size, Texas-only footprint, and locally-owned positioning versus national underwriters.
• Republic Title of Texas: Texas-based title insurance agent operating in the DFW and central Texas markets. Comparable in product offering (owner/lender policies, escrow, closings) and in operating model as a mid-sized Texas title agent competing in similar residential transaction segments.

Broad incumbents

• First American Title Insurance Company: National title underwriter with major Texas operations. Comparable in product offering (title insurance, escrow, closing) but operates at a vastly different scale and competes for the same Williamson County transactions via national direct and agent channels.
• Stewart Title Guaranty Company: One of the largest U.S. title insurance underwriters, founded in Houston, TX. Directly comparable to Longhorn Title as both issue title insurance in Texas, but operates nationally with vastly greater scale, proprietary technology, and direct lender relationships that compete with Longhorn's local-agent model.
• Fidelity National Title (FNF): Parent of Chicago Title, Fidelity National Title, and other brands — the largest U.S. title insurer. Operates agency and direct channels throughout Texas and competes for Williamson County closings with greater marketing reach and integrated lender services.
• Old Republic National Title Insurance Company: National title underwriter issuing owner and lender policies with significant Texas agency presence. Same Texas-regulated premium structure and comparable product mix; competes for the same local agent business that Longhorn depends on.

Regional players

• Heritage Title Company of Austin: Central Texas–focused title and escrow company headquartered in Austin. Comparable in service offering, target customer (residential buyers/sellers and agents), and locally-rooted positioning, with geographic overlap into Williamson County suburbs.

Emerging players

• WFG National Title Insurance Company: Texas-founded national title underwriter that has grown rapidly through an agent model. Same Texas-regulated premium structure and directly comparable product offering; competes for independent agent business and could recruit Longhorn's Realtor referral network.
