Stewart Title National Commercial Services launches new Interactive Endorsement Guide

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Stewart Title National Commercial Services today announced that attorneys, title offices and lenders can now access an interactive list of most requested commercial endorsements in one place through its Interactive Endorsement Guide, which lists the most requested endorsements and directs them to Stewart’s best-in-class underwriting tool, Virtual Underwriter, for state-specific content, guidelines and more.

“For a 130-year-old company and brand such as Stewart, it remains a priority for us to stay positioned as part of the industry vanguard when it comes to providing our customers with the latest in future forward technology and resources,” said Erin Sheckler, Head of National Commercial Services. “With the release of our Interactive Endorsement Guide, we’ve been able to take an already established industry-best resource, Virtual Underwriter, and leverage it as the underpinning for a fresh new take on more traditionally formatted ALTA endorsement guides.”

Stewart’s Virtual Underwriter offers attorneys, title offices and lenders access to the essential information needed to keep underwriting transactions moving ahead, 24/7. Instead of searching through volumes of reference materials, the information needed is readily available with a single click, and now the Interactive Endorsement Guide is one more beneficial resource available. The guide is downloadable, mobile-friendly, and easy to use and navigate.

“In recent years we’ve invested in the expansion of our best-in-class underwriting capabilities and resources,” said Wilhelmina Kightlinger, Chief Underwriting Counsel of National Commercial Services. “This downloadable Interactive Endorsement Guide is proof positive of that continuously expanding investment. It is a timely resource for us to debut and is designed to meet the current needs and preferences of CRE attorneys and others who have expressed a need for a proven and convenient resource exactly like this one, available as it is both on-the-go and from desktops.”

“The Interactive Endorsement Guide acts as a companion resource to our Virtual Underwriter library, as well as something of an introductory portal to those who haven’t used VU before,” said Cherisse Patton, Virtual Underwriting Counsel for Stewart Title. “Now your most frequently used commercial endorsements are just a click away.”
