Kansas Secured Title

What Kansas Secured Title does

Kansas Secured Title is a privately held, family-owned title and escrow company operating exclusively in Kansas through 20+ physical branch locations serving 13+ counties, including Sedgwick, Shawnee, Douglas, Butler, Reno, McPherson, Jackson, Jefferson, Neosho, Montgomery, Cowley, Sumner, and Leavenworth. The company provides residential, commercial, and new-construction title and escrow services, title insurance policies (owner, lender, and leasehold), 1031 tax-deferred exchange coordination, in-house title search and abstracting, and construction disbursement services. Title insurance policies are issued through four approved national underwriters: Old Republic Title, Chicago Title Insurance Company, Fidelity National Title Group, and First American Title Insurance Company.

The revenue model is transaction-based, combining one-time title insurance premiums (typically less than 1% of property purchase price, less than 10% of total closing costs), per-transaction escrow and closing fees, search and abstracting fees, and managed-service fees for construction disbursement and 1031 exchanges. Pricing uses county-specific rate cards published for download, and orders can be submitted online for purchase, refinance, and title search transactions, with payments processed through a Unity FI Solutions integration.

The operational technology stack includes Remote Online Notary (RON) capabilities launched in 2024, the SecuredAgentKS ONE (Palm Agent) mobile application for real estate agents on iOS and Android, Closinglock-based wire-fraud protection, and FinCEN-rule compliance tooling ahead of the March 2026 reporting effective date. Distribution is primarily through the direct branch network with an SMB/individual go-to-market; commercial and construction segments are handled via enterprise-style direct sales and underwriter coordination. The company operates as part of a multi-state sister-company network under the Secured Title brand spanning Kansas, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Texas, Michigan, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Kansas City, and Rochester.
